Riley English, a 26-year-old woman, has been sentenced to over six years in prison for attempting to bomb Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent at the U.S. Capitol. English, who cited a mental health crisis and drug abuse as contributing factors, stated she was inspired by Luigi Mangione's actions. Despite her claims of not being political or violent, prosecutors argued the act was a planned "attempted political assassination." The judge acknowledged English's difficult life and progress in jail, noting the low chance of success for her plan and the ineffectiveness of the firebombs. AI
