Foster, Hinckley talked on phone
United Press International
NEW YORK — Actress Jodie
Foster — who first said she had
never spoken to the man accused
of shooting President Reagan —
actually had two telephone con
versations with John W. Hinckley
Jr., law enforcement officials say.
Transcripts of the calls show
- Hinckley’s pathetic and love-
» stricken efforts to talk with Foster
^ and her irritation with his letters
and phone calls.
“Listen, don’t, don’t hang up.
Please,” Hinckley, 26, implored
Foster during one of the two tele
phone conversations with her that
he tape-recorded.
Officials believe Hinckley tried
to kill Reagan in an attempt to im
press Foster, 18, a sophomore at
Yale University. There are no re
ferences to the president or vio-
in either of the calls, at least two occasions in an
lent acts
however.
At an April 1 news conference at
Yale, Foster said she had never
“met, spoken to or in any way
associated with one John W. Hinc
kley.”
But in a brief telephone inter
view Tuesday, Foster confirmed
that she had spoken with Hinc
kley. She declined to discuss the
matter in any detail.
“It’s not anything I can talk ab
out,” she said, adding that federal
officials had requested her not to
discuss the case.
The tapes containing the con
versations with Foster were found
in Hinckley’s Washington hotel
room shortly after the president
and three others were shot in
Washington March 30.
In the months before the shoot
ing, Hinckley visited New Haven,
Conn., where Yale is located, on
attempt to meet with the actress.
He also sent her a number of let
ters.
During one midnight phone call
to Miss Foster’s dormitory room,
Hinckley repeatedly said he just
wanted to talk with the actress,
the new transcripts show.
Foster: Seriously, this isn’t fair.
Do me a favor and don’t call back.
All right?
Hinckley: How about just
tomorrow?
Foster: Oh God! Oh seriously,
this is really starting to bother me.
Do you mind if I hang up?
Hinckley: Jodie, please.
After telling Hinckley she
would be unable to talk with him
again because she was leaving Yale
for the weekend, Hinckley re
marked: “Oh, it’s almost over,
Jodie.”
