Ten years after John Hinckley Jr. left St. Elizabeths Hospital, his attempted assassination of President Ronald Reagan remains one of the most remarkable chapters in modern presidential history.

In this episode of MX3 Podcast, we revisit the events that led John Hinckley Jr. from an obsession with Jodie Foster to stalking President Jimmy Carter, an airport arrest involving firearms, and ultimately the March 30, 1981 assassination attempt on Ronald Reagan outside the Washington Hilton.

We also discuss Hinckley's surprising connections to Ardmore, Oklahoma and Highland Park, Texas, his fascination with Taxi Driver, the warning signs before the Reagan shooting, his insanity verdict, his 2016 release from St. Elizabeths under restrictions, and the later removal of those restrictions.

A recent interview has once again brought Hinckley and his fixation on Jodie Foster into the spotlight. Nearly half a century after the shooting, one difficult question remains: should the public consider John Hinckley Jr. rehabilitated, or does his history still give you pause?
