Nancy Pelosi’s Husband, Paul Pelosi, Takes The Stand In Trial Against Attacker
On Monday, former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s husband took the stand in the trial against David DePape, the man who brutally attacked him with a hammer in the couple’s San Francisco home last year.
Paul Pelosi recalled the attack, which happened on October 28, 2022, in the middle of the night.
“The door opened and a very large man came in with a hammer in one hand and some ties in the other and he said, ‘Where’s Nancy?’ as I think that woke me up,” Paul said. “I’m asleep and he bursts in the door and that woke me up.”
According to federal prosecutors, DePape smashed his shoulder going through a glass panel on the Pelosis’ back door.
“Where’s Nancy? Where’s Nancy?” he asked, standing over Paul while holding a hammer and zip ties.
Paul called 911, and two police officers arrived at the scene in time to witness DePape strike Paul in the head with the hammer.
The 83-year-old was left with a fractured skill and other injuries to his right arm and hand.
DePape has pleaded not guilty to attempted kidnapping of a federal official and assault on the immediate family member of a federal official with intent to retaliate against the official for the performance of their duties.
If convicted, DePape will face life in prison.
