The charges stem from a 2018 incident when Hennessey was on his front lawn, covered in blood and dancing naked around a fire while carrying a knife and chanting an unknown language, according to the probable cause affidavit.

Earlier in the evening, Hennessey was celebrating his release from jail, as well as the summer solstice, according to sworn statements from witnesses at the scene.

Hennessey’s friends said that he had consumed psychedelic mushrooms and began chanting and placing his hands and feet into the fire. He then became more aggressive and threatened them with the knife, according to the affidavit.

Officers arrived at the scene and he brandished the knife toward them, found a stick and swung it at them. Officers then set a K-9 officer on Hennessey and tased him multiple times before they were able to subdue him.

His sentencing hearing is scheduled for Nov. 4, the release said.
