A woman has been sentenced to more than six years in prison for her role in a plot to kill a high-ranking government official. The target of the plot was U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent. The woman admitted to planning to carry out the attack on the day of Bessent's Senate confirmation.

The sentence was handed down on Tuesday. Details of the plot and the woman's involvement are known, but further information can be found through additional reporting. The sentencing brings an end to the case, with the woman now set to serve her prison term.
