Judge lashes 'QAnon shaman' in ruling against request for release

A federal judge rejected on Monday a request by the “QAnon shaman” who participated in the attack on Congress in ruling that he may not be released from jail before his trial.

Jacob Chansley, a 32-year-old who is also known as Jake Angeli, was the shirtless man filmed rampaging through the Capitol building on Jan. 6 clad in a horned coyote-tail headdress, face paint, and wielding flag-adorned spear. Chansley’s image was splashed across newspapers around the country following the riot, and he was subsequently arrested on several federal charges.
