A U.S. man has married Sara Jane Moore, the woman who attempted to assassinate President Gerald Ford in 1975.
The groom is a retired widower. His decision to marry Moore has caused a serious rift within his family, according to sources close to them.
Moore fired a shot at President Ford outside a San Francisco hotel. The bullet missed. She served 32 years in prison before her release in 2007.
The couple's relationship reportedly developed through correspondence and visits after her release. The marriage occurred in recent months, though specific details remain private.
Legal experts confirm there is no law preventing such a marriage. However, the groom's adult children have strongly opposed the union. They have reportedly cut off contact with their father over his choice of spouse.
