On Tuesday, San Francisco Judge Diane Northway ordered the accused attacker, David DePape, 42, to be held in jail without bail.
Attorney Adam Lipson, a public defender appointed to represent DePape, entered a not guilty plea on behalf of his client during a hearing in Superior Court in San Francisco. DePape is scheduled to return to court on Friday.
Paul Pelosi, 82, was attacked at his home in the Pacific Heights neighborhood of San Francisco early Friday morning. After the attack, the San Francisco Police Department released a statement saying, “… at approximately 2:27 a.m., San Francisco Police Officers from Northern Station were dispatched to the residence of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi for an ‘A-priority’ well-being check.”
“When officers arrived on [the] scene, they encountered an adult male suspect and Mrs. Pelosi’s husband, Paul. Officers observed Mr. Pelosi and the suspect, each with one hand on a single hammer. Moments later the suspect gained control of the hammer and violently assaulted Mr. Pelosi with it,” the statement added. UnmuteAdvanced SettingsFullscreenPauseUp Next
