Suspect in assault at Pelosi home had posted about QAnon, other conspiracy theories
CBSN
The man accused of breaking into House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's California home, and severely beating her husband with a hammer, appears to have made racist and often rambling posts online, including some that questioned the results of the 2020 election, defended former President Donald Trump and echoed QAnon conspiracy theories.
David DePape, 42, grew up in Powell River, British Columbia, before leaving about 20 years ago to follow an older girlfriend to San Francisco. A street address listed for the suspect in the Bay Area college town of Berkeley led to a post office box at a UPS Store.
The suspect was arrested at the Pelosi home early Friday. San Francisco District Attorney Brooke Jenkins said she expected to file multiple felony charges, including attempted murder, assault with a deadly weapon, burglary and elder abuse.
