Man who wore horns in US Capitol riot moved to Virginia jail

WASHINGTON (AP) — A man who stormed the U.S. Capitol while sporting face paint, no shirt and a furry hat with horns was moved to a jail in Virginia on Thursday after a federal judge ordered authorities to provide him with organic food while he’s in custody.

Jacob Chansley was transferred to the Alexandria Detention Center after his attorney argued that his client had gone nine days without eating because organic food wasn’t served at the jail in Washington. A judge ordered corrections officials to provide the special diet.

On Thursday, U.S. District Judge Royce Lamberth said the U.S. Marshals Service told the court that the District of Columbia Department of Corrections had asked for Chansley to be moved because they couldn’t honor the court’s order to feed him organic food.

The judge said jail officials in nearby Alexandria could accommodate the special diet.

So that little ploy may have backfired.

Edit: He wasn't in Arizona when he was moved. He was in D.C.

The epitome of white privilege. There is zero justification in this case for taxpayers to incur additional charges in order to keep this creep in detention.

None, I'm sure, which would most likely invalidate his claim.

Somewhere, I'd read there was no evidence found of his history of a special diet.

substantiated outside of his assertions since being arrested (I.e. was he espousing similar beliefs previously, was he generally engaged in indulging these beliefs previously)... In other words, is he sincere or bullshitting?

But if there is a prior track record of this being part of his spirituality/religiosity, then he needs to be treated with as much accommodation as Jews/Muslims/Jains who say they only eat kosher/halal/vegetarian foods (and how much is that? I dunno; maybe someone from the DOJ or BOP can tell us).

I'm not into the government picking out and dismissing certain religious beliefs as frivolous while accommodating others.

because his new menu "tastes yucky" and Mommy isn't there to feed him from his favorite Donald Duck dish and wipe his face when he eats too fast.

...Hey, Q, is this pathetic sack of dork still your mascot?
You bet your unwiped asses he is, because you don't get to choose!

Dietary needs for religious reasons, sure. But this ain't that

This little pissant dickmitten can eat processed Wonder Bread and bologna or he can starve.

I don’t get that. Alexandria is practically DC anyway, or vice versa - they can’t get the food in DC?

Sure, some made bail, but a lot of them are sitting there waiting for trial. Not so fun anymore.
