A sentence of six years and one month in prison was given to a 26-year-old woman. She had driven to Washington with homemade firebombs, intending to harm a government official. The woman claimed to have been experiencing a mental health crisis and drug abuse issues at the time.

The incident occurred in January 2025, on the day of the official's Senate confirmation. A judge nominated by President Barack Obama handed down the sentence, which also includes three years of supervised release.

Further details about the case are available, including statements made by the woman during sentencing.
