After hearing that her estranged husband was found guilty of seditious conspiracy against the United States, Adams said she felt "relieved and happy."

He has never faced consequences before. It is the first time he has ever been held accountable for his actions.

Adams spoke with HuffPost after the verdict was read in the trial, in which he was accused of being part of a far-right group.

Many of the charges against the Oath Keeper defendants were not found guilty by the jury. The five people were found guilty of obstructing an official proceeding. The most serious charge levied against any of the Capitol rioters so far was the conviction of two of them, Rhodes and Kelly Meggs. The maximum sentence is 20 years.

After more than two decades of marriage, Adams filed for divorce last year. Adams claimed that Rhodes spent Oath Keeper money on luxuries for himself and was abusive towards her and the children, three of whom spoke out against their father earlier this year.

Adams said that she was confident that the Washington, D.C. jury would do their job well, and that they wouldn't be swayed by emotion.

Adams warned that Rhodes was planning to ask for a pardon if Trump were to win a second term.

She said that he was mentally regrouped for that, and that's where his mind is currently. He thinks he is a mystical messiah martyr and will continue to see himself that way. He will look at that.

Rhodes wants to be a martyr before he becomes a great leader, according to Adams.

Rhodes bounces back quickly after a few days of feeling down and out.

She told The Huffington Post that it takes about three days to recreate a narrative about how wonderful he is.

Adams wants people of all political stripes to know that her estranged husband isn't the man they've been led to believe.

I was abused by him. He's amoral. I want them to know that he can't just come back.

The judge is expected to hand down sentences in the near future.

There are two more seditious conspiracy trials scheduled to start in December.
