At one of the November JFK gathereings in Dallas about twenty years ago, the late John Judge first pointed it out to your editor. Note the guy at the upper right on the balcony. He is the one that logically shot Tim McCarthy because in a few more seconds McCarthy would have been facing that balcony and positioned between him and Reagan, and by the time McCarthy was hit, as seen in the 1981 video still available on the ‘Net, Hinckley was already buried in a football scrimmage under a half dozen S.S. agents.
President Ronald Reagan smiles and waves as he leaves the Washington Hilton Hotel, Washington D.C., March 30, 1981. Among those pictured are, from second left, Secret Service agent Jerry Parr, White House press secretary James Brady, Reagan, White House Deputy chief of staff Michael Deaver, an unidentified policeman, policeman Thomas Delahanty and Secret Service agent Tim McCarthy (right). Reagan, Brady, Delahanty, and McCarthy were all shot in the attempt.
