The man arrested decades ago after the attempted assassination of former President Ronald Reagan has announced a public concert in New York this summer.
John Hinckley Jr. has slowly added to his musical repertoire, announcing his intent to create his own record label last December, decades after he was sentenced to 35 years in a psychiatric institution amid his failed attempt to assassinate Reagan in 1981.
"Big news," Hinckley announced to his 21,000 Twitter followers Friday."I will be performing on July 8 at the Market Hotel in Brooklyn, NY. Get your tickets while you can." Big news!! I will be performing on July 8 at the Market Hotel in Brooklyn, NY. Get your tickets while you can.Tickets to see Hinckley"and guests" are going for $20. The venue will require masks and proof of vaccination.
After passing a violent-risk assessment in 2020, Hinckley started a YouTube channel that December to showcase his abilities to sing and play guitar. His subscriber count of over 26,000 steadily increased over the course of that month, with over 20,000 views on his last three videos. In total, his videos have been viewed over 760,000 times, but the comment section is shut off.
Besides Reagan, three others were wounded that day, including Secret Service agent Timothy McCarthy, police officer Thomas Delahanty, and press secretary James Brady, who remained partially paralyzed for the rest of his life.
