Sara Jane Moore, whose 1975 assassination attempt on President Gerald Ford was foiled in San Francisco, was released today from a Dublin prison.
Moore, 77, had been scheduled for release on Tuesday, but she was instead freed a day early.
Moore pleaded guilty to attempted assassination and was sentenced to life in prison. She was released after 30 years because she had not broken prison rules, said Tom Hutchison, chief of staff for the U.S. Parole Commission.
The mother of four children, Moore fired a single pistol shot at Ford on Sept. 22, 1975, as the president stood in front of the St. Francis Hotel, near Union Square. She missed, mostly because a bystander knocked her arm away as she fired.
Her attempt came less than three weeks after Lynette "Squeaky" Fromme pointed a loaded revolver at Ford in Sacramento. She was arrested before she could fire a shot.

Boy this makes me "unglued."
Of all the people sentenced to Life in prison you are going to release a criminal who tried to kill a President?
So will we release Charles Manson next?
I'm so happy Moore didn't break any rules while in prison.
What a good girl she was.
Life should be Life..... I don't care if she is 100 years old.
What do you think?
