A Quebec woman was sentenced to 22 years in prison Thursday after sending letters containing ricin to former President Trump in 2020.
Pascale Ferrier, 55, pleaded guilty in January to making ricin in her home and mailing Trump and eight Texas law enforcement officials threatening letters laced with it. The toxin is made from waste material left over from processing castor beans.
She faced a charge of prohibitions with respect to biological weapons in Washington, D.C., and eight counts of the same charge in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Texas. She agreed to have the Texas case transferred to Washington for plea and sentencing, according to a Justice Department release.
In the letter to Trump, Ferrier urged the then-president to “[g]ive up and remove [his] application for this election.” After mailing the letters, the dual citizen of Canada and France drove from Canada to a border crossing bridge in Buffalo, N.Y., where border patrol agents arrested her after finding a loaded firearm, hundreds of rounds of ammunition and other weapons in her possession.
Prosecutors previously said she was detained in Texas for about 10 weeks in 2019 and believed law enforcement officials played a role in her time there.
When she pleaded guilty in January, U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia Matthew Graves said “there is no place for political violence in our country, and no excuse for threatening public officials or endangering our public servants.”

She is Canadian Stalinist scum. I hope they throw away the key.
She should get 22 years just on general principles...
The Sayer of the Law, Trump BAD!.
Ha! Thank you, you reminded me of a once-in-a-lifetime experience I had about 25 years ago. Got to get in a cage with a couple of yearling lions. Not for beta types or the faint of heart, for sure.
(Pascale Ferrier, 55)
Liberal...... I’ll wager........
Gitmo for her; sounds good to me
(Where does one obtain Ricin?)
From the Breaking Bad guy; Walter White.
C’mon man!!!
Ask for the Lydia Special.
I have 3 words for you, Katherine Zeta Jones.
Is she even a true biological woman?! I seriously doubt it! Woof!
I think hanging in the public square would work better in “her” case.
“...for mailing ricin to Trump in 2020”
I guess I’m confused, she was fighting FASCISM, and this is the result? She should be given an AWARD by Congress.
(no, I wasn’t trying to funny as nearly half of the country, and the ENTIRE Democrat leadership, now thinks that way)
Still, no one has seen what I did there......
Funny how the far left’s women resemble men and the men resemble women.
Often…
I’ve already resigned myself to Pascal’s wager.
She looks more like the wages of sin.
There’s a saying I use to differentiate between dogs and cats:
If you have a 140-lb dog, you can sleep in the same bed with it without fear.
If your housecat was that big, it would kill you and eat you.
That guy probably found out.
“Where does one obtain Ricin?”
You make it yourself with castor beans.
I hear that Lydia likes it in Sweet and Low.
😀😅😃😜😆🤣🤣🤣😆😆😜😜
Uh, yeah... Sometimes we do. I’m almost 40 and I still break out on occasion. My mom does too, and she’s in her sixties.
That being said, “Pascale”, I’m pretty sure, is a man’s name.
I wonder if it’s detention in Texas in 2019 involved a border crossing? Or was it not border related?
