Capitol Riots 'Shaman' sentenced

From Morning Report, 8:27 am on 18 November 2021

One of the faces of the 6 January Capitol attack has been sentenced to 41 months in prison for his involvement.

Photographs of so-called QAnon shaman Jacob Chansley in a horned, fur headdress inside the Capitol building were seen around the world as the Capitol seige unfolded earlier this year.

He pled guilty to one count of obstruction after reaching a plea deal with the U.S. government.
