Woman who stole Pelosi's laptop and tried to sell it to the Russians

[Tenacious E]

If convicted, what do you think the appropriate penalty is? We executed the Rosenbergs for spying for the soviets. On a scale of a young woman being caught up in the moment/minimal jail time to treason/execution, where do you think this falls?

A 22-year-old woman accused of stealing Pelosi's laptop and planning to sell it to Russia has been arrested

Riley June Williams surrendered to law-enforcement authorities on Monday, according to CNN.

25 years. Chance of parole after 10.

That should give her plenty of time to realize the gravity of her actions.

 

[FAUlty Gator]

Whatever we did to Bradley Manning. Lock her up and change her to a dude.

 

[unsubstantiated]

You steal it when you're "in the moment". You don't plan to sell it "in the moment".

 

[NDallasRuss]

IWe executed the Rosenbergs for spying for the soviets.

Sounds like a fair punishment for this woman also. I vote "yes".

 

[Rifler]

More clown show,.. I'm certain her "Russian" connections were significant...

 

[dekhawk]

Never underestimate the value of a public hanging.

 

[Rustys Dad]

She should be put down ... simply for being so stupid ...

If someone attempts to hire a plant in a sting operation to perform a hit, does his/her ineptitude impact his/her punishment?

 

[Im4Iowa]

Nothing says guilty like packing a bag to leave for a long period of time, changing your phone number and deleting all of your social media accounts.

 

[dirtypool]

20 years for espionage
Hanging for treason

This young woman should be charged with breaking and entering and theft,.. The media making her out to be some kind of Russian operative is hilarious...

I do believe there is value in this environment for a long prison sentence and not making anyone a martyr to rally around.

 

[NDallasRuss]

And while I think she should be executed for treason, I also think I'd enjoy spending time with her beforehand.

No one here is labeling her as anything as grandiose as a Russian operative. Just a traitor who attempted to sell potentially classified/secret/top secret information to our nemesis.

Unsurprising photo of Capitol insurrectionist is unsurprising. Clearly ANTIFA.

I mean, she’s a 22 year old dumbass. Make an example of her, but state sanctioned killing is way, way too severe IMO.

The "harmless idiot" defense. You must be warming up for the coming Trump indictments.

 

[BlackNGoldBleeder]

"Capitol" punishment.

Lol. No, she is just another complete moron who thinks like you do. She just happened to be in the right place to get her hands on this computer. She then used HER BEST judgement and made a decision about how to get the most money out of it.

 

[Finance85]

Give her 10 years on the condition she has to read HROT posts out loud for 40 hours per week.

And by “the media” you mean “the FBI”, right?

 

[sadiehawkins]

Everyone of them is a traitor. Life in prison or death. There is no crime greater than this. Not murder not rape nothing is greater than turning on your country.

That’s treason

 

[Huey Grey]

This is treason on two counts. First she attempted to overthrow the government. Then she tried selling, what I assume she thought, were state secrets to an adversary.

 

[Finance85]

Treason in the US requires 2 witnesses to the act.

 

[FAUlty Gator]

Doesn't matter. Didn't you see "Midnight Run"? All she had to do was attempt to contact someone and it's "Conspiracy to Commit Treason". Jack Walsh and Agent Mosely knew that.

There was not two people who saw her in the Capitol building?

Sounds about right to me.

Government is an artificial human construct. Both murder and rape are far worse crimeS, AINEC.

She is on video terrorizing the capitol. So that crime is undeniable. As for selling the laptop, there is already one witness. If they can find a paper trail, she is probably sunk there, too.

To me it depends on the treason. If she sold the laptop to Russian intelligence and our own intelligence agents were then killed, it is for sure on equal footing. If Russia was able to gain some advantage over us indirectly leading to American suffering or indirect deaths, or the foiling of our intelligence operations short of death, that is also right there with murder.

Well yes- if the treason leads to innocent deaths, absolutely.

But I would hope to god a laptop laying around in the House chamber does not include such sensitive intel.

she committed treason just by storming the capitol. She should be hung for such crimes, especially considering the espianoge she took part in with regards to the laptop

If Pelosi cannot expect her office, in the Capitol, during a full session, in which electoral ballots were certified, to be safe, where else safer would she have it located?

I oppose almost all state sanctioned killing. I also think this particular perp has mental health or stupidity issues. So also oppose capital punishment in those circumstances.

She should not keep such info on the laptop she uses for day-to-day business IMO. And I’d be shocked if it was used for such things.

Just to address this question,.. Truly sensitive government material should not be downloaded onto any portable device,.. Not saying it was...

Theres a fair number on here who already do that. But that’s mostly because they lack the ability to read in their head.
