Hinckley Jr. should be charged with murder.
He’s probably thinking right now, “I did THAT for Jodie Foster??!?!?!? What the Hell was I thinking?”
“Hinckley Jr. should be charged with murder.”
Good idea. There is no statute of limitations on murder and Jim Brady was only wounded by the attack. The charges against Hinckley were for attempted murder. The two issues are whether Brady hd his life shortened by the shooting (factual) and whether Hinckley’s original insanity acquittal on attempted murder charges gives him a double jeopardy defense on the murder charge.
