Sara Jane Moore, lady who tried to asasinate President Gerald Ford died at the age of 95.
I'd like to know more about this:

She was arrested by police on a gun charge the day before her attempt, and booked for having a .44 caliber handgun and 113 rounds of ammunition.

Are guns banned in Tennessee or was she just carrying it concealed without a license?

Also, how'd they find out she had a gun?

She was in California at the time; the article is from Tennessee because that's where she was living when she died.

SFPD had interviewed her and taken the gun the day before the shooting, and relayed it to the Secret Service. She made a lot of phone calls, it seems. Here's a contemporary article asking how she wasn't taken more seriously (archive).

Sara Jane Moore is one of the characters in Assassins; she gets a lot of dialogue but she doesn't have any solos. Her part of "The Gun Song" is funny, though.
Skip to 2:47 if you're too hetero for musical theater.

Kalleb Horton is a writer by the way who wrote this script to a Big Bang Theory episode:

Italian artist Renato Casaro has passed away at the age of 89, assumedly of natural causes. Casaro was most famous for a vast number of iconic posters for films such as Conan the Barbarian, Blow Out, A Fistful of Dollars, and many more. Worth mentioning that he ended an over 20 year retirement in 2019 when Quentin Tarantino requested his talents for Once Upon A Time In Hollywood.
