Sara Jane Moore was released from prison
On December 31, 2007, at the age of 77, Sara Jane Moore was released from prison on parole. She had served 30 years of her life sentence.
Sara Jane Moore (born Sara Jane Kahn on February 15, 1930) attempted to assassinate U.S. President Gerald Ford on September 22, 1975 outside the St. Francis Hotel in San Francisco, just seventeen days after Lynette “Squeaky” Fromme had attempted to assassinate Ford.
Ford had died from natural causes on December 26, 2006, approximately one year before her release.

This film documents the second assassination attempt on President Gerald Ford, attempted by Sara Jane Moore on September 22, 1975. President Ford exits the Hotel St. Francis and a shot is heard. A bystander identified as Oliver Sipple grabs Moore’s arm. Secret Service agents then cover Ford and push him into his car
Almost one year to the day since the passing of Former United States President Gerald Ford, the liberal activist who tried to kill him walks free.
Most people believe that attempting to assassinate a US President should and normally does result in a life in prison for the would – be assassin. Sara Jane Moore is proof that they are wrong. What’s more, her prison record is dotted with conduct violations and an attempted escape in 1978.
Another interesting detail of this case is that Sara Jane Moore was successful at convincing a federal judge to block a prison warden from taking away an inmate’s cell keys back in the summer of 2000.
So why would would a federal prison’s parole board free Sara Jane Moore?
Inmates with life sentences can petition for parole after a staggeringly brief 10 years. This makes it possible to receive a life sentence and be walking the street again in little more than a two-term Presidency.
Presidential assassins can take shots at elected officials, skip two elections and be back in business for more political activism just in time to pop a new President if a parole board so desires.
Moore was released under a federal law that makes parole mandatory for inmates who have served at least 30 years of a life sentence without getting into trouble, according to Thomas Hutchison, chief of staff of the U.S. Parole Commission.
Never-minding the fact that Moore’s conduct was not without incidence during her incarceration, the real outrage is that our own laws mandate the release of such prisoners in just three decades. This is good news for the John Hinckley Jr’s in our prison system, and the future activists who feel like changing the course of history.
Now Listen To This….
Michigan’s second-highest court says that anyone involved in an extramarital fling can be prosecuted for first-degree criminal sexual conduct, a felony offense where Life in prison is within the mandatory sentencing guidelines for that state.
That’s right folks, our laws have become so politically and legally skewed that attempting to blow away a US President is nearly on par in the eyes of the law as an ordinary drunken fling. It’s quite an outlandish thought considering many of our own Presidents have been caught up in extramarital affairs.
