Arthur Bremer, whose attempted assassination of Alabama Gov. George Wallace during the 1972 Democratic presidential primary left the candidate permanently paralyzed, is scheduled to officially end his 53 year sentence and be permanently released from supervision in May according to the Maryland Department of Public Safety and Correctional Services.
MDPSCS Deputy Director of Media Relations Lowell Mesler confirmed that Bremer’s release date is May 15, 2025, which, coincidentally, falls on the 53rd anniversary of Wallace’s shooting at the Laurel Shopping Center in Laurel, Maryland.
