Paul Pelosi Released From Hospital After Attack; Suspect David DePape in the U.S. Illegally and Could Be Deported After Release

Paul Pelosi, the husband of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, was released from the hospital on Thursday after he suffered a brutal attack inside their San Francisco home.

The House speaker's husband underwent surgery to repair a skull fracture and injuries to his right arm and hands after the attack last Friday.

Nancy said that her husband "remains under doctors' care" as he still has a long recovery process to go. She added that Paul is now home surrounded by his family while also requesting privacy.

Nancy was in Washington, D.C. with her security detail when DePape bashed a window to break into the home of the family on Friday, according to authorities.

Paul asked the intruder to allow him to use the bathroom in his effort to escape. He then dialed 911.

After police arrived, DePape lunged at Paul with the hammer, knocking him unconscious.

Meanwhile, California prosecutors charged David DePape with attempted murder, assault with a deadly weapon, elder abuse, residential burglary, false imprisonment, and threatening a public official in connection with the violent incident.

The 42-year-old suspect pleaded not guilty to charges against him on Tuesday.

Nancy Pelosi Home Invader David DePape

DePape could be deported from the United States after he is released from custody, according to the Department of Homeland Security.

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement placed an "immigration detainer" on the Canadian national who attacked Paul.

Records showed that DePape entered the United States through San Ysidro, California in 2008 as a temporary visitor.

Officials said that Canadian visitors who enter the U.S. for business or pleasure are generally allowed entry for six months.

Deportations usually happen after criminal cases are resolved and the detainer is seen not to affect the case against DePape.

The United States normally seek deportation after conviction and prison sentence.

Paul Pelos Attacked Inside Home

DepPape later told police he saw the House speaker as the "leader of the pack" of lies told by the Democratic Party. He added that he wanted to hold Nancy hostage and talk to her; if she lied, he said he would break her kneecaps, according to a federal affidavit.

The 42-year-old Canadian national arrived at the San Francisco home with zip ties, tape, rope, and at least one hammer.

DePape told police he was on a "suicide mission" and had plans to target other politicians in California and in the country, San Francisco District Attorney Brooke Jenkins.

DePape's early morning break-in to Pelosi's house was detailed in a filing made by local prosecutors as they seek to hold DePape without bail.

DePape reportedly told officers that he is "sick of the insane fucking level of lies coming out of Washington, D.C."

He was living in Berkeley, California for years, wherein he was at times homeless before he moved to a garage in nearby Richmond two years ago.

DePape seemed to have also written a blog filled with rants regarding the 2020 election results and antisemitic beliefs.
