The San Francisco Chronicle reports:
Federal prosecutors are asking a judge to sentence David DePape to 40 years in prison for attempting to kidnap House Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi and “nearly killing” her husband Paul Pelosi when he struck him on the head with a hammer at the couple’s San Francisco home in 2022.
DePape was found guilty last November of attempted kidnapping of a federal official and assaulting a federal official’s family member. The jury verdict was unanimous and came less than 24 hours after deliberations began.
In court documents reviewed by the Chronicle, federal prosecutors say that DePape has not shown remorse for his crime and “seemed proud of what he had accomplished.” Prosecutors also called the attack by DePape an act of terrorism, adding that he planned to hold Nancy Pelosi hostage and “break her kneecaps if she lied to him.”

Have a look at David DePape, the crazed MAGAt & QAnon conspiracy bigot who attacked Paul Pelosi with a hammer.
No one in America could mistake him for a Democrat.
