(John) Hinckley hearing testimony focuses on right place for him to live
Source: CNN

Testimony on day three of proceedings about the future of presidential assailant John Hinckley Jr. turned to whether Williamsburg, Virginia, is the right place for him to eventually live as an outpatient.

"I think it is right now," said Dr. Deborah Giorgi-Guarnieri, a psychiatrist whom Hinckley sees during his trips to his mother's home in Williamsburg. "It always requires constant assessment, but I think it is right now."

But Giorgi-Guarnieri testified Monday that Hinckley has had difficulty forming new relationships there. She said Hinckley does regularly talk with a female neighbor of his mother, and with both his female supervisor and a female co-worker at his volunteer part-time job at a hospital library.

Giorgi-Guarnieri said Hinckley, who likes to paint, has given paintings to both his supervisor and the co-worker. But she said that is something that is not unusual at that mental health care facility.

3. Unfortunately, I agree. Something was wrong about the whole thing.

5. I feel sorry for his family, but...
Where the roll and clank of iron is heard is the "right" place.

The Bush's house in Texas. After all, the Bush's were friends with the Hinckley's. Oh and teach him how to shoot. :sarcasm:

12. Hinckley and Mark David Chapman needed to exchange guns
I know this will get deleted, but what the hell. The wrong man was killed.

13. That's horrible
Reagan did not deserve to die. The real evil man in his administration was poppy Bush, who had a hand in both of those shootings. Bush's son Neil was friend's with Hinkley's brother. Hmm...

9. Nope
Sorry, if you try to assassinate the President of the USA, you don't get your freedom back.

10. My thoughts exactly, too.
Some things just cross a line, and there's no going back. This is one of those things.

11. So...
if you try to assassinate the president you should be treated differently than if you try to assassinate, or actaully do assassinate, a regular citizen?

14. Sure
Society will tell us we're all equal, but we're not. A president is far more important than a regular average Joe. Without Joe, the world doesn't change.
