I can't find a statute for 'attempted kidnapping' (which is pretty damn hard to prosecute considering the target victim was over 2,500 miles away.  But the penalty for kidnapping is eight years.

So we're looking at 12 years max.  Not 40.

This is attempted murder, becaus of Pelosi's advanced age.

He wasn't charged with attempted murder.  But after closer review, all the charges were federal, not State.  I think this may be the relevant statute:

18 U.S. Code § 115 - Influencing, impeding, or retaliating against a Federal official by threatening or injuring a family member
