John Hinckley - was reportedly seeking fame to impress the actress Jodie Foster, with whom he had a fixation. He was found not guilty by reason of insanity

@nedkelly why does everyone in the comments think John Hinckley shot John Lennon? it was Mark David Chapman. John Hinckley shot Ronald Reagan for the reasons you list. Mark Chapman killed Lennon because he wanted notoriety and Lennon was an easy target
