The man accused of attacking House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s husband could be deported from the U.S. after he is released from custody, the Department of Homeland Security said.

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, or ICE, lodged an “immigration detainer” on 42-year-old Canadian national David DePape, DHS told CNBC.

Records show DePape entered the U.S. through the San Ysidro point of entry on the southern border in 2008 as a temporary visitor, officials said.

David Wayne DePape, 42, who is charged with breaking into U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's San Francisco home and clubbing her husband in the head with a hammer, wears his arm in a sling before San Francisco Superior Court Judge Diane Northway at the Criminal courts in San Francisco, California, November 1, 2022 in this courtroom sketch.

The man accused of breaking into House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s house and attacking her husband with a hammer could be deported from the U.S. after he is released from custody, the Department of Homeland Security said Thursday.

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, or ICE, lodged an “immigration detainer” on 42-year-old Canadian national David DePape, DHS told CNBC in a statement.

The detainer requests that the San Francisco County Jail notify ICE before DePape is done serving time so that the immigration officers can take custody of him. ICE places immigration detainers on arrested individuals who it believes it can deport under the Immigration and Nationality Act.

Records show DePape entered the U.S. through the San Ysidro point of entry on the southern border in 2008 as a temporary visitor, classified as a B-2, officials said.

Canadian visitors who enter the U.S. for business or pleasure are generally only admitted for six months, officials said.

DePape, in his first court appearance Tuesday, pleaded not guilty to numerous charges including attempted murder. He is currently being held without bail, with his next hearing set for Friday, his public defender said.

The Justice Department has also charged DePape with two federal crimes: attempted kidnapping of a federal official and assaulting an immediate family member of a United States official with the intent to retaliate against the official, according to his criminal complaint.

Federal charging documents allege that DePape broke into the Pelosis’ San Francisco residence early last Friday, confronting 82-year-old Paul Pelosi in his bedroom and stating “he was looking for Nancy.”

The Democratic House speaker was in Washington, D.C., at the time. Paul Pelosi managed to call 9-1-1, and when officers arrived, DePape struck him in the head with the hammer, authorities said.

DePape himself later told police he saw the House speaker as the ”‘leader of the pack’ of lies told by the Democratic Party,” a federal affidavit said. He said he wanted to hold her hostage and talk to her, and if she lied he would break her kneecaps, the document said.

DePape arrived at the San Francisco home toting zip ties, tape, rope and at least one hammer, according to the affidavit.

In a Tuesday night court filing, San Francisco District Attorney Brooke Jenkins said DePape told police he was on a “suicide mission” and had plans to target other California and federal politicians.

Paul Pelosi is recovering in the hospital after undergoing surgery to repair a skull fracture.

Attempted murder committed with LEOs present as witnesses isn’t a crime.

The media is run by former government officials and family members of current and past government officials and bureaucrats. They control the content and news cycles.

It’s tough being a year round outdoors nudist in Canada. He should claim asylum on those grounds.

Simple conclusion: Every American deserves the level of justice that an alcoholic closet-homosexual who is married to the Speaker of the House gets.

Deported?! How cruel. He just wants a better life! He is a victim of his mental illness, not a criminal.

Ha! He’ll be deported alright - in a body bag.

“When some nut tried to kill a supreme court judge it was crickets.”

That is because the Pelosi break in “story” we are being fed does not add up. The MSM is trying to spin/change the narrative.
We now know it is BS because the “story” keeps changing and they will NOT release their security footage either from the SFPD, or the Capital Police CCTV or any surrounding houses.

In the case of the Supreme court judge/crazy person we know who it was. They have footage and they are not hiding anything. It does not fit the MSM narrative, so they just don’t talk about it.

Of course he’ll be deported never to be heard or seen again. And with a sh*t load of money in his bank account. As long as the Pelosi’s are alive, we’ll never know the truth of the attack, although most of us have already figured it out.
