Nancy Pelosi indicates she has 'no intention' of watching bodycam video of home invasion
The home invasion occurred Oct. 28, 2022. Paul Pelosi has since been released from the hospital.
California Democratic Rep. Nancy Pelosi on Friday indicated that she has "absolutely no intention" of watching the police body camera footage of the incident last year during which David DePape allegedly entered her San Francisco home and struck her husband, Paul, with a hammer.
"As you know today there was a release of some information. I have not heard the 911 call, I have not heard the confession, I have not seen the break in, and I have absolutely no intention of seeing the deadly assault on my husband’s life," Pelosi said, according to The Hill.
The San Francisco Superior Court this week released the body camera footage of the incident along with Paul Pelosi's 911 call, after siding with a group of legacy media outlets that had sued to secure their release.
In the video, police approach the Pelosi home and knock on the door. Authorities briefly converse with Pelosi and DePape, both of whom are grasping a hammer, inquiring as to the situation.
At first, the scene appears calm, but DePape quickly turns violent after police ask the pair to drop the hammer. He then seizes full control of the tool and strikes Pelosi, prompting police intervention.
