Woman who threatened to shoot Pelosi during Jan. 6 attack sentenced to 60 days
UPI ^ | July 21, 2022 | Darryl Coote

A woman who said she broke into the Capitol during the Jan. 6, 2021, attack and searched the building for House Speaker Nancy Pelosi with intent to shoot her "in the friggin' brain" was sentenced Thursday by a district judge to 60 days' imprisonment.

The Justice Department said Dawn Bancroft, 59, was also sentenced to three years' probation, 100 hours of community service and a $500 fine.

The sentencing by district Judge Emmet Sullivan comes nearly a year after Bancroft pleaded guilty in late September to a misdemeanor charge of illegally demonstrating, picketing or parading inside the Capitol, which comes with a maximum penalty of six months in prison.

Bancroft was arrested in Fort Washington, Pa., in late January 2021 after the FBI received a tip and a video showing her at the Capitol among a horde of supporters of then-President Donald Trump who stormed the building Jan. 6 in an attempt to stop the joint sessions of Congress from certifying Joe Biden as the 46th president of the United States.

The criminal complaint states the video the FBI received was self-shot by Bancroft and Diana Santos-Smith and showed them exiting the Capitol. During the video, Bancroft admits to having broken into the building and that they were "looking for Nancy to shoot her in the friggin' brain but we didn't find her."

Hmmmm, with what, an invisible gun? I guess its appropriate considering she’d be dealing with an invisible brain.

What happened to the cop officer who shot Ashli Babbitt in the face and killed her on J6? Nothing? How can that be?

I thought Emmet Sullivan retired after his vendetta against General Flynn.

What about all the Antifa that threatened to kill Trump?

See my tagline. Sadly and infuriatingly, nothing has and probably nothing will happen. The Deep State runs deep on the Ashli Babbit matter. But some of us haven’t forgotten.

Antifa are the Derp State stormtroopers. They are extended special protection.

Most Libtards get a free pass. I know it sucks, but that’s reality these days.

Just asking - did she have a gun in her possession?

" . . . searched the building for House Speaker Nancy Pelosi with intent to shoot her "in the friggin' brain."

BS alert. If she was in the Capitol with a gun, looking to shoot Pelosi, she wouldn't have gotten off with 60 days. And we would have heard about it long ago.

Am guessing 100% chance no. Probably doesn’t own one and has never fired one. But does foolishly shoot her mouth off. 🥴

A factor we cannot discuss involving privilege.

May Ashli Babbitt rest in peace.

But the article is written to make it sound like she had a gun and was roaming the halls looking to shoot Pelosi. If that were actually the case, we would have heard about it more than a year ago, and she wouldn't have gotten off with 60 days.

Political theater.

She must be a progressive/blm/Aunti Fah.

Otherwise, she’d be nailed to the wall.

She was wasn’t charged with pled quilts to making her statement about a gun. She was charged and pled guilty to stupidly entering the Capitol building.

The punishment seems to have been one day in prison for each remaining Pelosi brain cell at risk. Her Botox side effects and age problems ruined the other ones.

Pelosi during middle of the Trump Presidency: “I refuse to go back into that White House and talk with President Bush again.” She honored her word.

“pled quilts” -> “pled guilty”
