He became the face of the US Capitol riots on January 6. Jacob Chansley, who described himself as a “Q-Anon Shaman,” plead guilty to obstructing Congress. Now, he will be sentenced.

The teenager faces life in prison if convicted of killing two men, and wounding a third. He shot the three men during protests against racial injustice in Kenosha, Wisconsin in August 2020.
