'QAnon Shaman' lawyer released a video claiming to show him stop someone from stealing a muffin

The lawyer for the "QAnon Shaman," one of the suspects in the January 6 insurrection, has released a video claiming to show him stopping another person from stealing a muffin from a Capitol break room, as part of a motion for pretrial release.

Jacob Chansley, who was pictured at the riot wearing horns, a headdress, and face paint, was arrested days after the event.

His lawyer, Albert Watkins, said in a Wednesday filing seen by Insider that he had given the government "video footage depicting Defendant Chansley during his January 6, 2021 visit to the Capitol thwarting a crime (theft) by yelling at another person in the Capitol who was attempting to steal a 'muffin' from a breakroom in the Capitol."

Watch the video, titled "Jake Stops Muffin Stealing," here:

More than likely he was upset because the guy didn't want to share it with him.

You're speaking about Officer Daniel Hodges who made a full recovery with both eyes.
