Thirty years ago, Warren Frye committed a crime that changed his life and millions of others: He shot the President of the United States. Now he's been released from a mental hospital into the care of his 80-year-old mother. They say he's better. He hopes he is. But when he's confronted by the same pressures that once led him to do the unthinkable, we hope for redemption, brace for tragedy, and live in the space between.
