Jacob Chansley, one of the most infamous figures involved in the storming of the U.S. Capitol, has been officially sentenced to 41 months in prison for his involvement in the January 6th riot.

Chansley — known for his public persona as the “QAnon shaman — was one of the most recognizable people within the pro-Donald Trump insurrectionist mob because of the thematic garb he wore while breaking into Congress. Prosecutors sought to sentence Chansley to 51 months in federal prison, but the ruling passed down by U.S. District Judge Royce Lamberth sentences him to 41 months in prison with an additional 36 months of supervised release. The sentence is comparable to the one passed down last week to Scott Fairlamb, another mob participant who got 41 months in jail for assaulting a police officer during the riot.
