Jacob Chansley, self-styled as the Q-Anon Shaman, has been sentenced to 41 months in prison for his role in the Jan. 6 insurrection at the U.S. Capitol.

The Phoenix resident was one of the first 30 rioters in the building that day and was photographed wearing a hat with horns, bare-chested and carrying a 6-foot spear.

Chansley pleaded guilty in September to obstruction of a federal proceeding and has been in custody ever since.

A judge on Wednesday handed down the sentence minus the time he’s already served.

Nearly 700 people have been arrested in the 10 months since the insurrection. More than 200 were charged with assaulting or impeding law enforcement.
