Williams, 22, is facing multiple charges after she allegedly intended to sell the device to a friend in Russia.

in a court filing said a witness claiming to be a former romantic partner of Williams' said friends showed them a video of Williams taking a laptop computer or hard drive from Pelosi's office., who then planned to sell it to the SVR, the country's foreign intelligence service. However, the plan fell through and Williams either still has the device or has destroyed it, the witness said.

Williams' attorney, federal public defender Lori Ulrich, reportedly said she was prepared to present evidence that the allegations were false. Ulrich has been contacted for additional comment.

trump sent these insurrectionist to Capitol Hill to hang and beat OUR GOVERNMENTAL OFFICIALS.

should be life in jail

Only 20? Should be life.

She's very young and we don't know about her background. I guess she wasn't really aware of what she was doing. The riot should be taken seriously, but I think, one can't make all of the rioters the scapegoats of all the wrongs in the last 4, 40 and 400 years.

Is this peaceful protest as described by IvankaTrump and DonaldJTrumpJr?

That's a bit extreme.

That’s it?

Yaz!!

Well deserved in my opinion; stealing it is one thing, but attempting to sell it to a foreign agent now come on! China would have already executed her for treason

😆

Lock them all up!

Aubrey Plaza next role

Old saying 'When your Dumb, you pay' and she is a Dumb A$$

And wanna bet she’s gonna tell the judge she’s sorry.

Creepy mugshot🤪

LeaBlackMiami Consequences are hard. [tear]

LeaBlackMiami Good.

DOMESTIC TERRORISM 6 MURDERS , ATTEMPTING TO OVERTHROW OUR GOVERNMENT ? EVERYONE INVOLVED INCLUDING TRUMP SHOULD DO LIFE ! LIFE !

LeaBlackMiami Should get more than that

This is all amazing, they never thought this would happen lol, buh bye sucka’s lol

so long dumb bitch

What were all these people thinking?

She is done with her life already!

Burn After Reading?

Hope she does go for 20

PARDON? As in EXCUSE ME? Oh you thought I meant “Pardon” from Trump? Yeah that ship has sailed! I bet u are feeling so misinformed now. Oh RileyWilliams what a waste! How does this action translate into a “Peaceful Protest or March”? TRUMP YOU TOO NEED TO BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE!!

lock her up. otherwise next time she will kill

Good! 😊

Sign an executive order to stop the pardons! No one is above the law and must held accountable. Victims need closure.

Glad she was found. needs to do a much better job of keeping political misinformation from spreading via comments from users, under the scrolling 'popular topics' feature.

She'll learn the hard way. 8 years is hard (my guesstimate) & serving 6 years minimum will be very different from what she envisioned.

Good!

whymustyoujudge We're glad about that. I hope it's a 'good jail' with a good library. But what about our seated elected officials who engaged in the propaganda to destroy Democracy?

ishagshafeeg What an odd young woman.

I'd be interested to know what these people thought would happen after they attacked the seat of government. Did they think everything would be fine with the police? Or Trump would give them a medal? What delusion are they living in?

Bye Felicia...dumbass!

Prison is in Riley's future. Riley's new friends:

And while she won't get that long, she will have to do 85% of her time before she eligible for parole. Also it should be noted she is pretty bossy, but is probably finding out real fast that in jail (and prison) the prison guards do the bossing around.

Violent insurrections have consequences.

Lock her up!

Where’s the attempted espionage charge? Didn’t she attempt to sell it to “the Russians”?

Shes is that girl from the show intervention that huffed duster, isnt she?

Trump who whistled her & the other rioters up will of course have nothing to do with her now. Leaving destruction in his wake he is gone.

Tough t*tty, toots.

She definitely deserves life in prison for a treasonous actions.

20 years? Pretty light considering the treason and such

Lunatic

blah how do we know if she stole it, though?

Maximum sentence should be given to all- inciting insurrection should not be taken lightly.

And her 'Brave Leader' is having a good time in Mar-a-Lago

Yikes, maybe no pardon.
