A judge will hear arguments Friday on whether a suspect charged in the U.S. Capitol siege on Jan. 6 should be released from detention before trial by considering, among other aspects, a unique defense as a person who cares about pastries, according to reports.

Jacob Chansley, who calls himself as the "QAnon Shaman", told 60 Minutes+ correspondent Laurie Segall that he does not think his actions during the U.S. Capitol insurrection were an assault on the nation.

Chansley, who was photographed during the riots wearing fur and a Viking hat with horns, said that his actions "were not an attack on this country," and that he can prove it because he stopped other rioters from stealing muffins.

When he was asked to describe his actions, he said he sang a song because it's part of Shamanism. The singing part, he said, is about "creating positive vibrations in a sacred chamber" where he also prevented rioters from looting and vandalizing and actually "stopping somebody from stealing muffins out of the break room."

Chansley, in his latest attempt to beg for leniency and avoid spending 20 years behind bars, told the interviewer that he said a prayer in that sacred chamber because it was his intention "to bring divinity and God back into the Senate."

As this developed, Richard Barnett, one of the more infamous participants in the riot, yelled about his perceived unfair detention during a court hearing on Thursday. 

Barnett -- who was seen in photos breaking into Nancy Pelosi's office and putting his feet on her desk -- said other people who participated in the assault have been freed from prison, while he is still being held. 

"I've been here a long time... another month ... it's not fair,' he complained, according to Daily Mail, citing KNWA. "You're letting everyone else out ... I need help."
