Riley Williams, the alleged US Capitol Insurrectionist who's accused of stealing a computer from Nancy Pelosi's office, returns to DC court on May 28.

A judge agreed to allow Williams and her dad to travel to N. Carolina last week to visit a sick relative.

She's not in jail

1. That's nice, Officer Sicknick can not visit a sick relative

Because he was killed in an insurrection she took part in. I hope she rots in a cell for a long time. I worry she wont.

2. Was the laptop ever recovered?

4. They never said it was.....

But apparently it was just a utility computer in a conference room. Nothing significant on it, and it was likely encrypted anyway.

Hopefully they know what she did with it and can produce evidence at trial. But I don't think she has been charged for it specifically.

3. This woman deserves decades in prison

She stole a secure laptop and tried to sell it to the Russians, she should be facing espionage charges and be imprisoned for decades. I cannot believe the judge doesn't seem to be taking her as a serious threat to our national security.

Some judges are just treating this like they were playing a high school prank, I don't get it.

5. I hope she tries to run.
