TL;DR

John Hinckley Jr., who shot President Ronald Reagan in 1981 to impress Jodie Foster, appeared on a podcast preview and said he wishes Foster well. Hinckley was found not guilty by reason of insanity, spent years in psychiatric care, and was released in 2016 to live with his mother under therapy and travel restrictions; a 2022 federal ruling lifted court oversight as officials found no active mental illness or violent tendencies.
