Jo Ann Hinckley, whose son John Hinckley Jr. tried to assassinate President Reagan, has died at age 95. Jo Ann Hinckley was her son’s primary companion as he transitioned from living at a Washington psychiatric hospital to being allowed to live with her.
Jo Ann Hinckley, 95, had been her son’s primary companion as he transitioned in recent years from living at a Washington psychiatric hospital toBarry Levine, John Hinckley’s longtime attorney, confirmed Jo Ann Hinckley’s death to The Associated Press on Tuesday. Levine said that Jo Ann Hinckley died in her sleep last week. He did not provide a cause of death.
In the years following the shooting, his parents began to raise money for mental health research and education. They founded the American Mental Health Fund in 1984. In 2006, Hinckley eventually began making visits from the hospital to his parents’ home in Williamsburg. Those visits expanded in length over the years.
Since he moved in with his mother, Hinckley “was grateful to have been able to reciprocate in some measure by providing fulltime care for her,” said Levine, his attorney. Levine said Tuesday that Hinckley, 66, had already moved out of his mother’s home before her death. Hinckley is in the process of asking a federal judge in Washington to grant him release from various conditions that he’s been living under. His next court hearing is scheduled for Sept. 27.
