Revealed: Would-be Reagan assassin John Hinckley found love (and sex) with a string of mentally ill and violent women in his psychiatric facility and has been secretly working as an Amazon bookseller since his release
The only living person to ever shoot an American president has been enjoying a quiet and uneventful life in the six months since he was released from the psychiatric facility where he spent the past three decades. John Hinckley Jr., 61, was released from St. Elizabeths on September 10 of last year and into the care of his 91-year-old mother Joann, who the court has ordered him to live with for at least one year.
Halfway through that time, Hinckley has done nothing remarkable and is practically a ghost according to a new story about the would-be assassin in New York magazine.
Hinckley volunteers at a church, works as a bookseller on Amazon under an anonymous handle, and even those in his mother's neighborhood where residents previously voiced concerns about him being set free say they never see him in public.
There are still many who object to his release however, believing he should spend the rest of his life removed from the public after shooting President Ronald Reagan and three others on March 30, 1981 outside the Hilton in Washington DC.
In a note that was found soon after, Hinckley stated that he committed the unthinkable crime to get the attention of actress Jodie Foster after stalking her for years. Hinckley would send letters and even call the actress at Yale after developing an unhealthy obsession with her when he saw 'Taxi Driver.'
And it seems that obsession with women continued during his time in institutional psychiatric care.

Asassin?
You don’t have to go to the loony bin to do that. Especially in today’s society.
Who knew I had something in common with John Hinckley?
Would-be...
It’s the correct use of the word with that tossed in first.
Are you saying you (and by definition, I) bring out the best in women?
LOL
ttiuwp
I guess you need to have been successful to rate all four s’s.
He had sex with the staff?

Sorry, but I hear that Jodie plays on the other team.
: D
So, he’s just a poor bass tuhd like the rest of us?
Maybe he’s not actually insane and has been living in the real world...
That adds up to one thing...if the November election had ended differently [rest of post self censored to keep from attracting the attention of the Secret Service who probably is still protecting an unnamed ex-first lady, senator, secretary of state and presidential candidate].
I hear ya.
My fortune wasn’t ruined by them, but it could have been better.
It’s nearing 4.5 years from the last one, and I’m less likely now to ever be involved with a woman again, than I have been in my entire life.
No, with Hillary ;-)
He should be charged for murdering James Brady and should also be sued for civil damages. The courts should also prevent him from inheriting anything from his wealthy parents.
He flat out had bad taste in women.
I knew Jodi Foster was liberal. I didn’t know she was mentally ill...oh, no difference I guess
This isn’t her fault.
