The man convicted of attempting to kidnap then-House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and attacking her husband with a hammer will learn his fate in federal court Friday.
David DePape, 44, was tried late last year for attempted kidnapping of a federal official and assault on the immediate family member of a federal official. Jurors convicted him on both counts on Nov. 16, 2023. Prosecutors have asked Judge Jacqueline Scott Corley for a 40-year prison term.
DePape's early morning break-in at the Pelosi home in October 2022 resulted in federal as well as state charges. A second trial in state court will start in the coming weeks.
