The attorney for Paul Pelosi, 82, the husband of Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) who was arrested Saturday night for DUI in Napa, California, after a car crash, issued a statement on the arrest Monday evening. The statement, posted to Twitter by Fox News reporter Chad Pergram, disputes some aspects of reports about events surrounding the arrest but does not address the DUI charge.
Statement from Atty for Paul Pelosi: Several news reports about Saturday night’s traffic incident involving Paul Pelosi have included incorrect information. Mr. Pelosi was attending a dinner party at the home of friends near Oakville. He left that party at 10:15 PM Saturday, to drive to his home a short distance away. He was alone in his car. After stopping at the intersection of Walnut Drive and Highway 29, and proceeding across Highway 29 to Oakville Cross Road, his car was hit on the back fender by a Jeep heading southbound on Highway 29. Mr. Pelosi was fully cooperative with California Highway Patrol officers who arrived a few minutes later.
A prior driving offense erroneously attributed to Mr. Pelosi is untrue and likely refers to another person with the same name. This error must be corrected.
There are also incorrect reports that misstate the timing of events. Mr. Pelosi left the dinner party at 10:15 PM Saturday. The incident happened a few minutes later. CHP and Napa County processing took until 7:30 AM Sunday.

Oh yes it is. Full operation.
The strategy must be that if we can point out some things in the original report that were wrong, other things might be wrong as well. The problem is that this might be viewed as admitting the central charge. If it were me, I would have made no statement.
Isn’t he rich enough to afford a driver?
Nancy had no comment because it’s a ‘private’ matter.
Uh, no it’s not.
So Paul Pelosi’s a stickler for precision when communicating incidents to the public.
Makes me wonder if he’s ever met his wife.
What difference at this point does it make? /s
Probably afraid he’d get somebody like me to drive him home.
“Isn’t he rich enough to afford a driver?”
Yes; he is also rich enough to drive drunk, cause a wreck, and get away with it.
Hide and watch.
If Paul is wearing a neck brace, that’s the “tell”.
An amateur compared with Kennedy.
But too, much cheaper payoff to all involved.
They need a picture of Paul on the cover of time in a back brace.
“Paul Pelosi is a wealthy, politically connected democrat. Don’t you peons know that he can do whatever he likes without any ramifications??? Joe and Hunter? Bill and Hillary? Comey? Sandy Burger? John Brennan? Bob Mueller? Anyone??? Bueller? Bueller? Bueller???”
Thanks for the smile.
He is worth 150 Million. He can just give the Jeep driver $1,000,000 and this goes away. It will be resolved in the next 60 days. The records will be sealed.
Indeed and also not smart enough to have one or perhaps arrogant enough.
That seems like he’s being charged twice for the same thing. I’m sure one of the more legally minded FReepers can explain it.
Lawyer’s statement: “How dare you little people ask questions about this. Don’t you know who we are?”
“...likely refers to another person with the same name..”
A claim without proof.
