A federal judge sentenced the “QAnon Shaman” – the US Capitol rioter nicknamed for his horned headdress – to 41 months in prison for his role in the deadly January 6 attack by hundreds of supporters of former President Donald Trump.The sentence on Wednesday of Jacob Chansley, matches one imposed by a judge on a former mixed martial artist filmed punching a police officer during violence, who was also sentenced last week to 41 months in prison.Prosecutors had asked US District Judge Royce Lamberth to impose a 51-month sentence on Chansley, who pleaded guilty in September to obstructing an official proceeding when he and thousands of others stormed the building in an attempt to stop Congress from certifying President Joe Biden’s election.
