After Paul Pelosi was attacked in his home by David DePape, some conspiracy theorists offered some interesting theories on what actually happened. It turned out that DePape was just a nut. A Canadian illegally living in America who was deeply disturbed and mentally ill. Following DePape’s 2023 conviction in federal court, he was sentenced to 30 years in federal prison.
On Friday, a state court jury found DePape guilty of five state felony counts. Those felonies included: Aggravated kidnapping resulting in bodily harm or death, false imprisonment of an elder or dependent adult, threatening family of public officials, first-degree residential burglary, and preventing or dissuading a witness by force or threat. After sentencing, DePape will first serve the majority of the 360 months in federal prison. Thereafter he will be remanded to state custody to serve what will likely be the remainder of his life behind bars.
I’m not suggesting the DePape shouldn’t serve years in prison, but Pelosi didn’t suffer life-changing injuries. The physical damage was severe, but Pelosi recovered and was able to testify. DePape will spend the rest of his life in prison because he clubbed the husband of Nancy Pelosi.
Jennifer Oliver O’Connell covered the conviction and sentencing and pointed out the elephant in the room. DePape was treated with due severity, but in other jurisdictions, criminals committing heinous felonies are treated quite differently. She wrote:
I cannot help but think about the other victims of crime in California who are not only still awaiting justice, but still suffering the aftereffects from their attackers or grieving over the unconscionable loss of a loved one. District attorneys like Alameda County’s Pamela Price and Los Angeles County’s George Gascón have made a cottage industry out of soft sentences for violent felons and repeat offenders. The majority of crime victims have neither the name recognition nor the resources of the Pelosis, so our two-tiered justice system is glaringly obvious here. Ivan Gallegos, 19, was freed after two days in custody after Los Angeles police say he and two others confronted Xavier Cerf, 27, as he was breaking into a car, and Gallegos pulled out a knife and fatally stabbed him earlier this week.
Paul pelosi is just as despicable and vile as his psychopathic witch of a wife. If either one had one ounce of dignity or integrity , they would both take a cyanide tablet out of shame and embarrassment. But I guess you just can’t shame the shameless. They are both demons from hell.
