Bessent threat case: 73-month term vs. 121-month DOJ ask

A D.C. federal judge imposed 73 months — 48 below the government's 121-month request — on Riley English for transporting inoperable firebombs to the Capitol with stated intent to kill Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent. The court credited mental-health mitigation, self-reporting, and device non-functionality over DOJ's deterrence arguments, while a three-year supervised-release term extends monitoring. The ruling offers a practical anchor for threat-prosecution plea structuring and presentence advocacy in politically charged weapons cases.
