Hinckley would give proceeds to victims
WASHINGTON — John Hinckley has agreed to pay as much as $2.9 million in possible book and movie proceeds to James Brady and two other men wounded in Hinckley's 1981 assassination attempt against President Reagan, lawyers in the case said yesterday.
The Associated Press
The agreement, which Hinckley's attorneys said he signed Monday at the mental hospital where he is confined, provides for his cooperation in the sale of his life story. It could lead to a movie or book revealing his reflections on the attack, which he has said was a way of drawing attention to his love for actress
But Hinckley would receive no more than $3,000 a year from the profits for his personal use, or $12,000 if he ever were released from the hospital, said Frederic W. Schwartz Jr. Brady's lawyer.
Jodie Foster.
The financial benefits would go to the three men besides Reagan who were wounded in the March 30,1981,attack—Brady,the former White House press secretary; Timothy J.McCarthy,then a Secret Service agent,and Thomas K. Delahanty, then a district of Columbia police officer.
The agreement is intended to end a long legal battle in which Brady, McCarthy and Delahanty sought to force Hinckley to pay for his act.
Brady was shot in the head during the assassination attempt and was left permanently disabled. McCarthy and Delahanty suffered lesser injuries. Reagan, who recovered from a serious gunshot wound, did not sue Hinckley.
Hinckley, 39, has been confined at St. Elizabeth Hospital in Washington since 1982, when he was found innocent of criminal charges by reason of insanity.
The key to the agreement was getting the right to his life story, Schwartz said, because Hinckley has virtually no other potential assets.
One of Hinckley's lawyers, B.J. Jones-Terrell, said Hinckley agreed to the settlement because he wanted to compensate
the victims. "He wanted to let people know that for many years now he's wanted to make some sort of restitution," he said.
the agreement requires Hinckley to surrender the legal rights to his life story to a trust controlled by Brady, McCarthy and Delahanty. Hinckley also agreed to provide his "intellectual property" — almost 100 boxes of documents, letters and songs he has written, literary articles and a videotaped deposition he gave for the lawsuits.
Such property also includes his innermost thoughts and feelings about why he chose to demonstrate his love for Jodie Foster by trying to assassinate the president, Schwartz said.
