The Justice Department announced federal charges against David DePape, 42, in the attack last Friday on Paul Pelosi, the 82-year-old husband of Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), at the couple’s San Francisco home.
Kristinn Taylor reported on the announcement earlier.
DePape is being charged with assault on a family member of a U.S. official and one count of attempted kidnapping of a U.S. official, Nancy Pelosi, who was not home at the time.
In the charging documents, the Justice Department, via interviews with Paul Pelosi and DePape lay out the government’s version of events (TGPsummary):
The two men did not know each other. DePape broke into the house via a rear door using a hammer and went upstairs looking for Nancy Pelosi. He found Paul Pelosi in bed and told him he was looking for Nancy. Not finding her home he told Paul he would wait for her. He let Paul go to the bathroom where Paul made a 911 call, which apparently DePape overheard. The two went downstairs where Paul opened the door when police knocked. Paul was not attacked until police arrived when he was apparently beaten unconscious by DePape with a hammer while police confronted the men. DePape had a bag with zip ties, rope, tape, gloves, another hammer and a journal.
DePape said his plan was to hold Nancy Pelosi hostage to get her to tell the truth and let her go if she did tell the truth, but if she lied he would break her kneecaps.
“DEPAPE also later explained that by breaking Nancy’s kneecaps, she would then have to be wheeled into Congress, which would show other Members of Congress there were consequences to actions.” Both men were interviewed by law enforcement, with DePape reportedly speaking after being read his Miranda rights.

“Only thing missing was David wearing Maga hat.”
Only other thing missing is a randomly abducted child. Because home invasions that lead to those NEVER have anything to do with the abductor knowing the kid or the parents...
“Random home invasions, contrary to what some may think, are not that common.”
Exactly.
The one exception might be a professional burglary ring, but normally that would be multiple perps who would try to make sure nobody was home.
hmmm zip ties waiting for nancy ROFLMAO who would do her ?
Oh, he went up to get some shut eye. Kind of like he felt at home.
One of the items DePape had in his possession was a “Clipper Card” . I had to look that up and what I assume they meant was this.
Possibly public transportation ?
I would like to hear what DePape has to say.
That story makes no sense at all. If Mr. Pelosi opened the door to let the police in he had the opportunity to ask for immediate help. It makes no sense at all that police responding to a 911 call at the home of the Speaker of the House would not immediately act to protect Mr. Pelosi. How would the attacker succeed in attacking Mr. Pelosi in the immediate presence of multiple police officers?
Were they using the new Uvalde protocol?
Of course he was tired, that happens after, well you know.
I don’t trust the Feebs to tell the truth.
Very true. And it could be happening as we type on FR.
Whatever happens, this investigation is going to held as close as any Top Secret crap the government has going on.
But, I can tell you from experience that Inter office chatter in a police department is something to behold.
Folks are talking. Depends on who they tell.
If any Hollywood writers drop dead suddenly, we’ll know who wrote this tripe.
Paul Pelosi was probably on parole from his DUI in Napa. I’m thinking soliciting a gay prostitution probably ends that parole.
“Wouldn’t one Republican leaning cop be all we need to tell the truth? He could then transfer to Florida.”
The officially released reports would reveal that that cop wasn’t even on duty that night. And that he worked school crossing during the midnight to 6:00 AM shift the entire month of October.
How did the glass end up outside on the sidewalk?
The police already said that a 3rd unidentified person opened the door. They never said it was Paul.
If he broke into the house, why wasn’t he charged with breaking & entering?
How was he allowed to get near the house when neighbors say there’s security 24/7?
What did he need to ask Nancy so desperately that he was willing to commit a crime to get an answer?
Napping? Is that what they call it now?
“When will they charge Paul Pelosi with soliciting a prostitute?”
Never. If he is charged for this simple crime he goes directly to jail. He is still on parole. Also, since prostitute is an illegal alien there would be a serious charge of sex trafficking since the act crossed state lines.
Instant jail time for Paul, no justice for America. He is a protected class.
Old gay people code language, like the pedos have theirs today.
JMO, YMMV
The broken glass to the outside was a result of the sheep escaping.
