The man who was convicted in the 2022 attack on the husband of House Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi was sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole Tuesday following his state trial.

DePape’s early morning break-in at the Pelosi home almost exactly two years ago on October 28, 2022 – just days before the 2022 midterm elections – sent shockwaves through the United States and was attributed to the predictable effects of increasingly demonizing political rhetoric.

The attack on then-82-year-old Paul Pelosi was captured on police bodycam video after officers responded to his 911 call and found him struggling with DePape, who then bludgeoned Pelosi with a hammer.

The life sentence on state charges is on top of the 30-year sentence DePape received for his federal conviction.
