A man already convicted on federal charges of attacking the husband of former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi was found guilty of aggravated kidnapping last week by a San Francisco jury.

David DePape, 44, of Berkeley, was convicted in the 2022 break-in at the Pelosi home, where he attacked Paul Pelosi with a hammer.

He was found guilty of residential burglary, false imprisonment of an elder, dissuading a witness from reporting a crime, and threatening a family member of a public official.

DePape was sentenced last month in U.S. District Court to 20 years for attempted kidnapping of a federal official and 30 years for assaulting a member of a public official’s family. The sentences run concurrently, meaning he will serve 30 years.

DePape’s attorney in the state case, San Francisco Deputy Public Defender Adam Lipson, said Friday the kidnapping charge carries a penalty of life without the possibility of parole.

“The decision to charge that crime is a textbook case of vindictive prosecution,” he said.

“This means that after Mr. DePape serves his 30 years in federal custody, he will be transferred when he is 71 years old to spend the rest of his life in a California prison.”

DePape arrived at the Pelosi home shortly after 2 a.m. on Oct. 28, 2022, broke in through a glass door, woke up Paul Pelosi, and told him he was “looking for Nancy.”

Paul Pelosi told DePape that she was in Washington, but DePape refused to leave. Then followed a cat-and-mouse game in which Pelosi sought to telephone police without provoking an attack.

He was able to contact San Francisco police at 2:23 a.m. and when officers arrived at 2:31 a.m., they found Pelosi and DePape struggling over a hammer.

DePape gained control of the hammer and struck Pelosi in the head, fracturing his skull and causing serious injuries to his right arm and hands.

“The jury’s verdict delivers justice and ensures that Mr. DePape will face consequences for his heinous crimes against the Pelosi family and our democracy,” District Attorney Brooke Jenkins said.

DePape is currently in custody. It wasn’t immediately clear when he will be sentenced.
