A Florida woman who pleaded guilty to hitting Congressman Matt Gaetz with a drink after a political event received a jail sentence of 15 days.
Amanda Kondrat'yev, who pleaded guilty to throwing a drink on U.S. Representative Matt Gaetz in June, was sentenced to 15 days in federal prison Monday for assaulting a U.S. Congressman.
"My supporters are just as passionate as all my opponents," Gaetz said in a statement issued before Kondrat'yev was sentenced."They have the capability to be violent too. My efforts to ensure ALL participants remain nonviolent are undermined greatly by the Defendant's actions." "Only incarceration allows me to reinforce to my supporters and opponents alike the Free Speech is welcomed—but assault will not be tolerated," said Gaetz.
U.S. Rep. Matt Gaetz speaks to the media outside of the Sensitive Compartmented Information Facility during the continued House impeachment inquiry against President Donald Trump at the U.S. Capitol on October 30, 2019 in Washington, DC."We want to welcome everyone to our events," Gaetz said after the sentencing,"whether they support me or not."
