David Depape, Paul Pelosi Suspect: 5 Fast Facts You Need to Know
Heavy ^

Posted on 10/28/2022 3:22:19 PM PDT by FarCenter

David Depape is the suspect accused of attacking Paul Pelosi, the husband of U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, with a hammer in the couple’s home on October 28, leaving Paul with serious blunt-force trauma.

Police confirmed the suspect’s name. Depape is a Berkeley, California, resident. What are Depape’s politics and was he on social media? On a blog and website, he was fixated on censorship and made antisemitic comments. In one post, he ranted about government attempts to control information, calling for the arrest of journalists from prominent news organizations. He also posted COVID and election conspiracy theories online. Online records give Depape’s age as 42.

After receiving a call and being dispatched on an “A-priority wellbeing check” in the early morning hours of October 28, 2022, San Francisco police officers encountered an “adult male and [Nancy] Pelosi’s husband, Paul” in the Pelosi home, Chief Bill Scott said in a news conference. “Our officers observed Mr. Pelosi and the suspect both holding a hammer. The suspect pulled the Hammer away from Mr. Pelosi and violently assaulted him with it. Our officers immediately tackled the suspect and disarmed him and took him into custody, requested emergency backup and rendered medical aid.”

Trump’s atty was on fox news and said it was a ‘child’ but I didn’t hear any other details. I sure would like the truth to come out though

“I heard on the news quoting DM that Pelosi had emergency brain surgery.”

That’s been retracted. He had a fractured skull surgery, but no brain surgery. Big difference.

Banging each other?

Let's see.

A source in the Heavy article said, "He (David DePape) would appear to be a former Castro nudist protester." The Castro District is heavily homosexual. San Francisco homosexual men routinely parade naked. San Francisco heterosexual men do not.

Also, both men were in their underpants.

Also, the source of the "Where's Nancy?" quote is a guy from CNN, and is therefore untrustworthy.

Also, security around the Pelosi house is probably excellent.

Can this be added up to make sense?

Yes! That doesn't mean it's what happened, but it's a reasonable guess.

But maybe newbies. Maybe it was new security people that called the police, out of inexperience on how to deal with Pelosi family shenanigans. Maybe the Pelosi's just switched their security service to the Capitol Police - it was announced in August that the (DC) Capitol Police would open an office in SF.

Dems are always trying to get a free ride. So the Pelosi's may now have tax-paid government security, security workers doing their best of course!

Possible.

If DePape is homosexual that should break soon.

It’s called “reading between the lines.” Keep your head in the sand if that’s what floats your boat tho.

Note they didn’t say what the guy wrote. It could have been F Trump and Kanye. They better not be allowed back on Twitter. See, then he talked about Trump and Kanye and censorship.

Here's the quote:

“Our officers observed Mr. Pelosi and the suspect both holding a hammer. The suspect pulled the hammer away from Mr. Pelosi and violently assaulted him with it.

There's only one hammer. Pelosi tries to hang onto it, DePape grabs it away from him.

Poor writing.

It was the nudist in the library with the hammer.
