In this VladTV interview, John Hinckley Jr. reflects on life after a federal judge allowed him to leave a mental hospital in 2016, 35 years after the shooting of President Ronald Reagan. Hinckley discusses moving to Virginia to live with his mother under strict court-ordered conditions, including therapy, medication monitoring, travel limits, and Internet restrictions. He explains how gradual community releases helped him adjust before full-time release, and recalls learning that Reagan had once wanted to meet him, saying he would have asked for forgiveness. Hinckley also speaks about Reagan’s later interview, the former president’s death, and his own unconditional release approved in 2021 and finalized in June 2022. Now free from court supervision, he says he remains voluntarily on Zoloft and Risperdal, describing his mental health today and why he believes he has regained his sanity.
