Capitol rioter sentenced to three years for storming Pelosi's office.

Riley Williams, a 24-year-old Pennsylvania woman who barged into Nancy Pelosi's office during the January 6 US Capitol riot, has been sentenced to three years in prison. Williams was convicted of several counts, including resisting or impeding an officer, civil disorder, and disorderly conduct. The judge ridiculed the defense's claim that Williams was "a little girl" and too young and small to be fully responsible for her actions. Williams directed members of the mob to push against the police during the attack and was a follower of the White nationalist alt-right figure Nick Fuentes at the time of the riot.
