Jacob Chansley, known as the “QAnon Shaman,” told Breitbart News that he was treated “relatively well” in prison after his arrest for breaching the Capitol on January 6, 2021. “It's not like federal prisons are full of people,” he quipped. These are people who love the federal government. ”
“So it’s not like a security guard or a CO.” [corrections officers] I voted for [President Joe] Biden — and it's not like federal prisons are full of people who love the federal government,” Chansley told Breitbart at Turning Point USA's annual AmericaFest conference in Phoenix, Arizona, in December. told the news.
“So there was a lot of intrigue and curiosity from both correctional officers and inmates,” he added. “I was treated relatively well in that regard.”
Chansley also explained that he was kept in solitary confinement for 10 and a half months, which was completely unnecessary.
“When they transferred me to another facility, they allowed me to join the general population,” he said. “So their excuses for keeping me in solitary, like 'COVID-19' and 'for my own safety,' completely disappeared when I was transferred. So, clearly, that's not the case. There was no.”
“Otherwise, I would say that for the most part, like in federal prison, my treatment in the prison itself was actually relatively fair. I was not targeted,” Chansley said. added.
Elsewhere in the interview, Chansley responded to the shocking news that video footage had surfaced showing a congressional staffer having anal sex with a stranger on a table in a Senate hearing room. Senators often sit there and ask questions during hearings.
“They've used everyone as an example in so many other cases, but are they just going to leave it at that?” Chansley said before asking, “What's up with that?”
