Relatives say Hinckley was low in spirits before shooting
Relatives testified that John Hinckley Jr was deeply depressed a month before he shot President Reagan. They urged his father to hospitalize him, but the father feared emotional damage from institutionalization. Scott Hinckley described the family as conservative and religious, with John’s moodiness affecting school and work. The 1981 indictment accuses Hinckley of attempting to kill Reagan and injuring three others.
