Prosecutors objected Wednesday to releasing Kennedy cousin Michael Skakel from prison while he awaits a new trial in the 1975 slaying of neighbor Martha Moxley. Connecticut Judge Thomas Bishop last week ordered a new trial for Skakel, ruling his trial attorney, Michael Sherman, failed to adequately represent him in 2002 when he was found guilty in Moxley's golf club bludgeoning.

Skakel and Moxley were 15-year-old neighbors in wealthy Greenwich at the time of her death.
