San Francisco city leaders are reacting after Paul Pelosi was attacked at his home.
“Right now, the motive and what his full intent is or was still under investigation,” he said.
San Francisco District Attorney Brooke Jenkins said her office plans to file several charges against the suspect, 42-year-old David DePape on Monday. The motive for the attack is still under investigation. “It’s been quite an emotional day or so to absorb all of this to know that someone, who is not only a local leader but a national leader to have their house targeted to have such a violent attack on her husband. It of course makes anyone who is in political leadership, take a step back and to question not only your own safety, and the safety of your family but where we are at in our nation’s history that people believe that this is sort of behavior is OK,” he said.
San Francisco Mayor London Breed spoke on camera about the attack for the first time Saturday. Breed attended a safety resource in Chinatown Saturday along with other leaders in San Francisco. “Nancy Pelosi is on a whole another level as it relates to elected leaders a very courageous elected leader in this country and known figure throughout the world. So it’s just really important that we start looking at this differently, so that something like this doesn’t happen especially as easily as it did,” she said.
