Jacob Anthony Chansley a.k.a. Jake Angeli and the QAnon Shaman will be fed an organic diet while in custody as he faces charges in connection with last weeks deadly riot in the U.S. Capitol.

He hasnt eaten since Friday and he gets very sick if he doesnt eat organic food literally, will get physically sick, his mother, Martha Chansley, told reporters, according to ABC 15 in Phoenix .

The U.S. Marshals told the station that Chansley will be given a shamans strict organic diet in accordance with the judges order to work with his attorney. A later statement from the court clarified that the order was pursuant to any legitimate dietary needs Mr. Chansley may have.

Chansley was photographed inside the Capitol as the riot unfolded, decked out in a furry costume and horned headwear. At one point, he even took the dais in the Senate chamber.
