A judge has granted the man who attempted to murder President Regan permission to live full-time with his mother in Virginia and leave the nutfarm where he has been incarcerated for 35 years.
To be fair Hinkley, 61, has, for the last ten years, been spending a great deal of time with his 90-year old mother and even before this action spent about half his time with her, 17 days a month. She lives in a gated community overlooking a golf course.
Hinkley’s release from St. Elizabeth has some strings attached. He cannot give interviews. He cannot travel very far from home without specific permission. The Secret Service still keep an eye on him from time to time. He is supposed to get some sort of employment, even if it is volunteer work.
For some strange reason the 61-year old homicidal psychopath (I’m sorry, former homicidal psychopath) is having trouble getting work. He seems to think it is because of his Secret Service
tail. I am guessing it might have something to do with the fact that he is a well-known homicidal psychopath.
He has done some volunteer work at a local mental hospital and a church. He is required to visit St. Elizabeth’s once a month for a check-up. I guess they ask him if he has killed anybody lately, or tried to. Seems reasonable to me.
