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.”

I just thank God it wasn’t someone operating out of the
right on a brainstorm mission. They’re hoping for that
sort of thing to pop up any second now.

As much as I detest the Pelosis, I don’t want this sort
of thing to happen to anyone.

If it can happen to them, it can happen to people on
our side.

We need to return to a law and order nation status.

We also need to get the crazies back in the loony
bin where they belong, and critically analyzing why
folks are on the street, and getting the able bodied
ones back to work or someplace where society doesn’t
have to skip over their urine and poop on the sidewalks.

I have a dim view of people who hand out money to the
homeless.

Please give it to an agency that is geared up to help
them.

Definitely one odd duck. He should have smoked the hemp instead of whatever he was smoking.

Pelosi managed to dial 911 without it being seen and left the line open. A welfare check was ordered due to that call. Both men were in their underwear. When police entered both men had their hands on the hammer, then the perp pulled it away and struck. But the number of wounds described indicates the attack began before the cops came in.

Sounds like some gay fun went bad.

Wearing whitey tighties while cooking meth is more of an Albuquerque thing.

So, a combo of Coomer and Vindman and Ye. Fascinating.

Yes, I don’t see all these motivations in the article.

The description of DePape is consistent with being just another Bay Area psycho. His nuttiness is broad enough to overlap with a large array of theories, conspiracy and otherwise. I doesn’t mean that he was a participant in anything other than his own personal fantasy world.

a person in underwear, wandering around the city streets of S.F., isn’t all that unusual.

I saw it while walking between the Art Museum & my hotel on a nice sunny afternoon. A black guy was pantsed by a couple of goons, maybe so they could steal what was in his pockets or settle debts. The black guy was pretty distraught and the perps were pretty cold & bold doing that in broad daylight. I doubt I'll ever go to SF again. What a hell-scape.

Just thinking out lot here, but the handle on that hammer had to be a tad slippery. How can one get purchase to whack the other??

Notice that the MSM must say he was a nudist as a way somehow to explain why he was in his underwear. Was Paulie P in his underwear?

The cynic in me made me think first that Nancy paid this guy to do this so that the Dems could campaign for the next two weeks against the evil Republicans who are bringing violence into politics. Desperate? Yes. Unlikely? Yes. Beyond the realm of possibility? Given her dad’s mob connections, no.
