The lawyer who represented the ' QAnon Shaman' in his trial for storming the Capitol on January 6 has said that his client has been released from prison to a halfway house. Jacob Chansley, 35, pleaded guilty in September 2021 to civil disorder and violent entry to the Capitol, among other charges, and was sentenced to 41 months in federal prison.

Yes he sure did.
We know he didn’t ‘violently’ enter and so did they. He’s on video calmly walking through the front door..
How do we actually know this and how do we know that wasn’t the deal?
I’m making no claims, it just always seemed fishy. From the first second he was such a poster boy.
I don’t think the J6 shitshow showed the video of him just slowly entering the door that was already open.
Someone a while back was trying to push that but it had no legs.
Now sue the prosecutors....
Now sue the prosecutors....
That is because of the way he dressed. Problem is Ray Epps has been totally let off the hook. This guy did not get that treatment.
I wonder if he can get the plea deal annulled and then sue for false prosecution.
Is Watkins still his lawyer?
“ Someone a while back was trying to push that but it had no legs.”
I’m not trying to push it, but I still wonder.
Just don’t know.
According to the Daily Mail UK article, it’s fairly routine for the bureau of prisons to allow early release into a halfway house in cases of good behavior. So I’m not sure how big of a win this is.
One thing that is interesting is that apparently they normally only allow a max of 12 months early but in this case it’s 14 months early.
I totally agree about how the Jan 6 people have been treated. Reminds me of dissidents in Cuba or something.
"Gentle eccentric" describes him pretty well. He was a local fixture around the Phoenix area before the Jan 6 business. Professionally, he was a local voice actor, but he was also a notorious attention seeker showing up at a wide at a wide variety of public events in his shaman get-up and getting up to take the mike if he was allowed to. He was allowed to speak at some of the 2022 Stop the Steal rallies until the organizers realized what a crank he was and how bad an image it was to have him up front. I think the guy finally got in over his head on Jan 6 and the Feds simply wanted to make an example out of him.
Very interesting.It was obvious from early on that he was a harmless flake. His biggest mistake was cutting an extremely photogenic figure with his horns and face paint. It made him irresistible to the media and the Democrats. They needed a “face of the insurrection” and he fit the bill.
Exactly.
For this we should really commend Speaker McCarthy and Tucker Carlson for their work.
Had Nanzi still been the Speaker and Congress under Dem control, Jacob Chansley would still be rotting in jail.
How about a lawsuit for false arrest and wrongful imprisonment…about 100 million from the j6 inquisition members would be about right…
Why was he called a “QAnon” Shaman anyway? Was he saying Q told them to do this, or what?
Perfectly stated, as I see it. Chansley is a threat to no one, and never has been.
He was there when the police murdered a woman. There is video of the murder. He saved another’s life.
He is locked up as he could testify against them.
