WASHINGTON — The Arizona man known as the “QAnon Shaman” will serve 41 months in prison after he stormed the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, a federal judge ruled Wednesday.
In handing down the sentence for the man, Jacob Chansley, U.S. District Judge Royce Lamberth said: “What you did was horrific, obstructing the functioning of the government. What you did was terrible. You made yourself the epitome of the riot.”
Chansley, 34, stood out among the rioters on Jan. 6 by appearing shirtless with face paint, wearing a furry headdress with horns and carrying a U.S. flag and a bullhorn.
