Nancy Pelosi’s husband’s assailant will probably be sentenced to life in prison
report Mehr News Agency, according to Reuters, a jury in California, “David DePope”, the assailant of Nancy Pelosi’s husband, the former speaker of the US House of Representatives, on charges of kidnapping, robbery, hostage-taking, threatening family members of an official Government and intimidation of a witness was found guilty.
This state conviction will likely add another prison term to DePope’s sentence. He was previously sentenced to 30 years in prison in May, and the latest conviction will most likely lead to his life imprisonment.
DePop, 44, broke into Pelosi’s home in San Francisco early on October 28, 2022 and attacked Nancy Pelosi’s husband, Paul Pelosi, with a hammer. At that time, Pelosi was the speaker of the US House of Representatives.
Paul Pelosi was taken to the hospital in an unconscious state after being hit in the head with a hammer and underwent several skull surgeries. He was also injured in his right hand and arm. The evidence presented in the federal court indicated that D-Pope had attacked Paul Pelosi under the influence of political motives and right-wing conspiracy theories.
