About Arthur Bremer
Arthur Herman Bremer is an American convicted criminal, who attempted to assassinate U.S. Democratic presidential candidate George Wallace on May 15, 1972, in Laurel, Maryland, leaving Wallace permanently paralyzed from the waist down. Bremer was found guilty and sentenced to 63 years in a Maryland prison for the shooting of Wallace and three bystanders. After 35 years of incarceration, Bremer was released from prison on November 9, 2007. Bremer made this clear in his diary writing, "He certainly won't be buried with the snobs in Washington.. A 113-page portion of Bremer's diary was published in 1973 as An Assassin's Diary; it covers the period from April 4, 1972—which, coincidentally, was the day on which George McGovern won the Wisconsin primary—to the day before Bremer shot Wallace.
