Kathryn Knott was sentenced to five-to-ten months in prison today for her part in a brutal 2014 gay-bashing that landed a gay couple in the hospital.

Knott, 25, was convicted in December of four misdemeanor counts —simple assault, conspiracy to commit simple assault, and two counts of reckless endangerment. She was acquitted of aggravated assault, a felony.

Zachary Hesse and his boyfriend, Andrew Haught, were attacked on a sidewalk in City Center on September 11, 2014, by a group of 14 that included Knott. Hesse was beaten with his arms pinned at his side and Haught had to have his jaw wired shut for two months.

During the encounter, Knott punched one of the victims and yelled homophobic slurs.

Knott is the daughter of a Bucks County police chief, and was the lone suspect to stand trial—Kevin Harrigan and Phillip Williams previously pleaded guilty.

During Knott's trial, a man claiming to be her gay cousin wrote a Facebook post defending her innocence and claiming she was an ally to gay people.

But tweets Knott had previously posted revealed a history of anti-gay prejudice.

When the judge read her sentence, Knott slumped forward and wept.

Reports Philly.com:

After Knott got up, red-faced and weeping heavily, she went to the bar of the court and hugged her mother. She then hugged her father, Karl Knott, the police chief of Chalfont Borough, in Bucks County. Then she hugged her mother again.

Knott's jail sentence will be followed by two years probation. Her attorney, Louis Busico, had sought probation only.

Assistant District Attorney Michael Barry, however, pushed for jail time, as the attack had impacted the entire city's LGBT community.

As Barry left the courtroom, Knott's mother, Carol, told him, "I really hope you're happy."
