Hinckley’s father was a financial supporter of George H.W. Bush's 1980 presidential primary campaign. Hinckley’s older brother, Scott, had a dinner date scheduled at the home of Neil Bush the day after the Reagan assassination attempt.[24][25] Neil's wife, Sharon, indicated in a newspaper interview the day after the shooting that Scott was coming to their house as a date of a girlfriend of hers, and that she didn't know "the brother [John]" but understood "that he was the renegade brother in the family." Sharon described the Hinckleys as "a very nice family" and that they had "given a lot of money to the Bush campaign."[26] This also led to various conspiracy theorists speculating that the Bush family had something to do with the assassination attempt.[27]
