A Pennsylvania mother of eight known as “Bullhorn Lady” since she was identified as a window-smasher and boastful obstructionist at the tip of the pro-Trump mob’s spear on Jan. 6, falsely believing her preferred candidate won the 2020 election, has been sentenced to serve several years in prison for numerous crimes.

Rachel Marie Powell, now 43, was convicted months ago of all nine charges she faced following a May bench trial before Senior U.S. District Judge Royce Lamberth, a Ronald Reagan appointee. Those charges included interference with a law enforcement officer during civil disorder, obstruction of an official proceeding, destruction of government property, and several standard Jan. 6 misdemeanors for breaching the Capitol.
