Hinckley Trial Reaches 39th Day With Deliberation Soon
The Hinckley case enters its eighth week as a jury of five men and seven women weighs guilt or not guilty by reason of insanity. The panel, instructed to deliberate without sympathy, began 3% hours of discussion after 85 minutes of jury instructions from U.S. District Judge Barrington D. Parker. The trial has heard extensive testimony on Hinckley’s mental state and featured defense and prosecution appeals to bias and justice, with potential commitment to St. Elizabeths Hospital if found not guilty by reason of insanity.
