Paul Pelosi
Trump has repeatedly ridiculed Paul Pelosi since he was held hostage and beaten with a hammer by a far-right conspiracy theorist in 2022.
Jessica Tarlov dismissed a claim that the shooting is essentially a problem stemming from Democrats.
The convictions on the additional charges in the state trial come weeks after a federal judge sentenced David DePape for the 2022 attack.
David DePape has already been sentenced to 30 years in federal prison for the hammer attack on the husband of former House SpeakerNancy Pelosi.
WHAT'S HAPPENING
I should have never hurt him, David DePape said of Rep. Nancy Pelosi's husband before he was sentenced again in California.
David DePape admitted during trial testimony that he broke into the Pelosis home Oct. 28, 2022, intending to hold the speaker hostage and break her kneecaps if she lied to him.
DePape was found guilty of two federal charges by a jury after he attacked the husband of former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi with a hammer in October 2022.
David DePape testified that far-right conspiracies influenced him in his attack on former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's husband.
"I recognized that I was in serious danger, so I tried to stay as calm as possible, former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's husband recalled.
David DePape was allegedly planning to assault a number of prominent figures, including Democratic Rep. Adam Schiff.
