that it faced a $2-million fine for overpricing oil. The possible charges were never mentioned after Hinckley's attempt.
Some of the forgotten coverage of the Hinckley story:
http://www.hereinreality.com/hinckley.html John Judge writes that "The two families lived close to each other. They knew each other socially and financially. When the Hinkley oil company started to fail in the sixties, Bush's Zapata Oil financially bailed out Hinkley's company. It went from being Vanderbilt Oil to Vanderbilt Energy or Vanderbilt Resources in the 60s after Bush intervened. The Hinkleys had been running an operation with six dead wells but then they were making several million dollars a year after the Bush bailout. I always thought this was some sort of a money-pass front where they were laundering money through on this phony oil operation but actually operating some type of an intelligence pay-off."
http://www.ratical.org/ratville/JFK/JohnJudge/112600.html The dad, John W. Hinkley Sr, was president of the board for World Vision. World Vision served, in Judge's words, as a "penetration force" for the CIA. That missionary agencies including World Vision have be used for Intelligence infiltration, and to identify and recruit anti-revolutionaries from refugee populations, is treated in the book Thy Will Be Done: The Conquest of the Amazon - Nelson Rockefeller and Evangelism in the Age of Oil by Gerald Colby. World Vision was financed during the Vietnam War by the CIA and given military equipment to use.
World Vision, Judge says, ran the Cuban and Thai refugee camps in the United States. Reportedly there were beatings and abuses, and the camps were run by Alpha 66 and Omega 7 people, the virulently anti-Castro assets of the CIA. And here's a kick in the head: Mark David Chapman, who eventually shot John Lennon, worked at World Vision's Thai refugee camps in Arkansas.
Here's Judge again:
"The damage that was done there once the shooting started was quite extensive. Brady was hit which literally took a large chunk of his brain and knocked him on to the ground. A black cop was nicked in the neck, a big beefy cop, and he spun and hit the ground hard by the shot. McCarthy, 160 pounds, was lifted by the shot, that hit him in the groin at the back door of the car, and thrown through the air to the front bumper of the car. He himself says that was no 22.
"All of the early press reports said that Hinkley was firing a 38 and that is much more consistent with these kinds of reactions.... But at the same time none of Hinkley's bullets hit Reagan and that was clear from Reagan's lack of this kind of reaction. Reagan gets to the car still standing. He is pushed into the car by McCarthy. He's got some pain in his rib, which he thinks McCarthy caused by pushing him in and eventually coughs up a little blood. But even when he finally gets down to G.W. Hospital, he is still standing when comes in and walks into the hospital and they put him on the gurney. He's not at all in the same shape as everyone else that's hit by Hinkley's 38.
"Then the official story changes after three or four hours and Hinkley supposedly had a 22. I went through the ABC footage and you can actually see the replacement of the 22 and the pick-up of the 38 by a Secret Service agent."
There's much more here, including the unsettling fact that, as on November 22, 1963, bomber pilots in the air for the Strategic Air Command bomber pilots found that, on the day of the Reagan attempt, they had no code books aboard:
