U.S. prosecutors in Arizona said Thursday in a court filing against Jacob Chansley, also known as the QAnon Shaman, that they have "strong evidence" members of the pro-Trump mob wanted to "capture and assassinate" officials. Michael Sherwin, the acting U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia, attributed what he called the "disconnect" in Arizona, and at least one other district, to the sprawling and complex nature of the investigation. There are preliminary hearings taking place in districts across the U.S. "At some of those hearings, there were other prosecutors, there may be a disconnect, may be adding information that's not directly related to what we have," Sherwin said at a news conference.
