Jacob Anthony Chansley, who also goes by the name Jake Angeli and is known among online conspiracy theorists and far-right internet groups as the "QAnon Shaman," appeared in federal court for the first time in Phoenix this week.
Chansley turned himself in over the weekend and told authorities he traveled to Washington, D.C., because Trump called on "patriots" to attend the demonstrations.

Chansley is reportedly refusing to eat food authorities are providing him while in custody because it is not organic.
"He gets very sick if he doesn't eat organic food — literally will get physically sick," his mother, Martha Chansley, told local television station ABC15 on Monday.
The station reported that a public defender told Judge Deborah Fine that Jacob Chansley had been on a restrictive diet before being taken into custody and had not eaten recently.
Fine reportedly ordered Chansley’s attorney to work with the U.S. Marshal's Office to address the dietary concerns.
Jacob Chansley is facing several charges in connection with last Wednesday's rioting, including knowingly entering or remaining in any restricted building or grounds without lawful authority and violent entry and disorderly conduct on Capitol grounds, the outlet noted.
He told a U.S. correspondent for The Globe and Mail last week that police let him into the Capitol.

"After a while, he said police politely asked him to leave and let him go without arrest," journalist Adrian Morrow reported.
I spoke with Jake Angeli, the QAnon guy who got inside the Senate chamber. He said police eventually gave up trying to stop him and other Trump supporters, and let them in. After a while, he said police politely asked him to leave and let him go without arrest
