The charges stemming from the Oct. 28 break-in at the Pelosis’ San Francisco home are the same as but supersede those in an earlier federal complaint that was filed on October 31.
The assault roiled the political world days before the hotly contested midterm elections, the first nationwide election since the Jan. 6, 2021, insurrection at the Capitol. Threats against lawmakers and election officials have been at all-time highs and authorities have issued warning about rising extremism in the U.S.
David DePape, 42, of Richmond, a San Francisco suburb, was arrested on Oct. 28 inside the Pelosi residence after San Francisco police responded to Paul Pelosi’s 911 call. He told officers that he was sleeping when a man he had never seen before entered his bedroom looking for Nancy Pelosi. The officers found 82-year-old Paul Pelosi and DePape fighting over a hammer, but DePape gained control and hit Pelosi in the head, according to the six—page indictment. It says officers later found that a glass door to the back porch had been broken. They recovered a roll of tape, white rope, a second hammer, a pair of rubber and cloth gloves, and zip ties.
