A man who calls himself the “QAnon\u00a0<\/a>Shaman” and\u00a0stormed the U.S. Capitol<\/a>\u00a0on Jan. 6 while wearing a horned bearskin headdress, face paint and no shirt, is willing to testify in former\u00a0President Trump<\/a>\u2019s upcoming\u00a0impeachment\u00a0<\/a>trial, his lawyer said this week.<\/p>\n

Jacob Anthony Chansley later regretted being “duped” by the former president after he didn\u2019t receive a pardon after the attack on the Capitol, lawyer Albert Watkins told KSDK-TV in St. Louis last week.<\/p>\n

Watkins added Chansley also lamented “being in a position where he allowed that duping to put him in a position to make decisions he should not have made.”<\/p>\n

\n

The lawyer told the Associated Press he has yet to speak to any lawmakers about the offer and senators have not voted whether to allow witnesses during the trial, which failed in a vote during Trump\u2019s first impeachment trial.<\/p>\n

Watkins said it\u2019s important for senators to hear the voice of someone who was allegedly incited by Trump. He described Chansley as having been “horrendously smitten” by Trump but said when he didn\u2019t receive a pardon following the riot he felt “betrayed.”<\/p><\/div>\n
