Pelosi Husband Attacked
Sgt. Carla Hurley, who interviewed DePape for an hour the day of the attack, testified Wednesday that the defendant told her of other people he wanted to target, including California Gov. Gavin Newsom, actor Tom Hanks and Hunter Biden, one of President Joe Biden's sons. Hurley did not say whether police had any evidence of a plot against them.
“There is evil in Washington, what they did went so far beyond the campaign. It originates with Hillary ," DePape told Hurley, according to her testimony. She said he also remarked,"Honestly, day in day out, they are lying. They go from one crime to another crime to another crime.” If the U.S. president and the vice president become unable to serve, the speaker of the U.S. House assumes the presidency.
