Attempted assassin of Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh sentenced to more than eight years in prison

A California woman who attempted to assassinate Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh in 2022 has been sentenced to more than eight years in prison.

Sophie Roske received the 97-month sentence from Judge Deborah Boardman on Friday afternoon in Greenbelt, Maryland. The 29-year-old pleaded guilty to the attempted assassination in April.

“I sincerely apologize to the justice and his family,” Roske said in court, adding that “this tragic mistake will follow me for the rest of my life,” according to CNN.

Roske traveled to Maryland in June 2022. There, she called 911 and told the operator she traveled to the state to kill a Supreme Court justice and brought a gun in her suitcase, according to the Justice Department.
