BREAKING John Hinckley to get full freedom 41 years after shooting President Reagan
John Hinckley Jr., the man who shot Ronald Reagan, has been granted release from a hospital.
Prosecutor Kacie Weston said in court Wednesday that the government believes the case"has demonstrated the success that can come from a wraparound mental health system." She noted Hinckley has expressed a desire to continue receiving mental health services even after he is no longer required to do so, and said the government wishes"him success for both his sake as well as the safety of the community.
"John worked hard. He wanted to correct something that he was unable to erase, and this is the best outcome that one could imagine," Levine said after the hearing, adding that"His regrets will always be with him with respect to the families of those he injured." Reagan recovered from the March 30, 1981, shooting, but his press secretary, James Brady, who died in 2014, was partially paralyzed as a result. Secret Service agent Timothy McCarthy and Washington police officer Thomas Delahanty were also wounded. Reagan died in 2004.
