The man sentenced to 30 years in federal prison for bludgeoning Nancy Pelosi’s husband with a hammer inside their San Francisco home returned to a courtroom Wednesday to face state charges, including attempted murder.
FILE – David DePape is seen, Dec. 13, 2013, in Berkeley, Calif. DePape, the man convicted of attempting to hold former Speaker Nancy Pelosi hostage and attacking her husband with a hammer two years ago, apologized in federal court Tuesday, May 28, 2024, but still received 30 years in prison at an unusual resentencing hearing that resulted from judicial error.
Opening statements are set to begin Wednesday, a day after DePape’s federal sentencing was reopened to allow him to speak. On Tuesday, Corley apologized to DePape, 44, and to attorneys for her error and asked if he wished to address the court. “I’m sorry for what I did,” he said, adding that he felt horrible and never meant to hurt Pelosi and that he should have left the house when he realized the former speaker was not there.
