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.

"Yet we need to deport this guy asap. Go figure."

A few years ago there was an illegal alien that caused a fatal auto accident here. While he was sitting in jail awaiting his trial, ICE swooped in taking custody of the guy and deported him. An innocent young man's life was taken by an illegal alien who was still drunk as a skunk at 7 a.m. Woooo. Big punishment. Kicked out of the country. He probably crossed back into the U.S. within a week's time, and is now lives here using an alias.

“Nothing will happen to him, in this country!”

If he is deported, he will end up in the most Remote/isolated and cold prison in Canada.

Fidel’s son will be paid very well to accept this pos into Canada.

‘Is it me but do a lot of “our” crazies come from Canada!’

My Mother warned me and anyone, who listened to her in the 1960~70’s that our formercrazies and their sons/daughters would cause problems for decades.

Those crazies hated Americans/America and left. Their craziness and their offsprings just festers until one or more goes bonzers.

Then, David DePape might get deported back to Canada, and we will never see him nor hear from or about him again.

I would not worry about that. We have a solid extradition treaty with Canada. But he wont be removed until and his trial and subsequent jail time.

If the fed court let's him bond out then he will have to bond out of immigration detention as well.

The immigration hold is just SOP and expected.

If it happens, it will go down as the quickest and most efficient deportation proceeding, anywhere. With full Congressional and Regime approval.

White hippy progressive druggie hammer-wielding sex-worker-faggot, from Canaduh. Oh the hugh manatee !

Next, deport all the illegal criminal alien invaders and VISA-overstays, from south of the border, Asia and Africa.

I wonder if Justina Trudo'h will protest this gross violation of a Canadian citizen's rights ? Demand full disclosure ? Mobilize the RCMP and whatever passes for the Canadian armed forces ?

Where's John Candy and Rita Rudner, when you need them ?

If I may add another thought: why isn't this guy dead yet ? Disappeared into the system ? Unavailable for arraingment due to being misplaced ?

The FBI, CIA, members of Congress, Secret Service, Capitol Jackboot Police and the SFPD all have their sticky and dirty fingers all over this cover-up.

And the best they can come up with is they "lost" the camera footage ? All of it ? At the same time ? Asleep at the wheel ? Pee break ?

I do loves me some sweet sweet verisimilitude. But even meth heads sober up.

Wild Hair: I submit that the Derp State is not some monolithic shadowy organization made up of like-minded individuals bent on world-domination, enslavement of the human race, power and Polo.

I submit, without evidence, that they are instead made up of competing interests and individuals, vying for control and domination of their individual spheres of influence, and the little human guy is still on the losing end.

They all want to be in control, but none of them want to be in charge, and that makes all the difference.

So that’s what an illegal alien has to do get a free vacation ride back home for a new I.D.

Well being the spouse of a ‘shudder’ third in line for US presidency was attacked by a Canadian. Shouldn’t the US pre emptively strike Canada to keep these cross border crimes from happening? A few himars maybe?

Well, deporting this guy would make the story go away faster, so maybe that would be a good thing for Paul Pelosi? Plus it makes Brandon’s DHS appear to be actually enforcing the law.
