TL;DR Summary

A growing number of Capitol rioters, including the infamous "QAnon Shaman" Jacob Angeli Chansley, have gone back on their guilty pleas and apologies, seeking to reverse their admissions of guilt. Some rioters have even capitalized on their involvement in the riots, using their notoriety to boost their political aspirations and raise funds. However, changing their pleas carries legal risks, and courts rarely allow such reversals. Despite expressing remorse in court, Angeli has since abandoned his regrets, resumed spreading conspiracy theories, and is using his newfound fame to sell merchandise and boost his online profile.
