DePape, who appeared in court wearing an orange jumpsuit, has pleaded not guilty to federal and state charges, including attempted murder, burglary and elder abuse. He remains held without bail.

SAN FRANCISCO — The man accused of attacking the husband of U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said there was “evil in Washington” and he was looking to harm Pelosi because she is second in line for the presidency, a San Francisco police investigator testified Wednesday.

Lt. 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.

DePape’s public defender, Adam Lipson, declined to comment after the judge's ruling, saying, “We’ll be fighting this case in court, not in the hallway.” Hurley, who was a sergeant at the time of the attack and was recently promoted to lieutenant, said DePape told Paul Pelosi he wanted to talk to Nancy Pelosi because “she is the second in line to the presidency."

Prosecutors presented the hammer that was allegedly used in the assault during Wednesday's proceedings, which were attended by Christine Pelosi, one of the Pelosis’ five adult children. DePape allegedly smashed his way into the Pelosis' home, confronted Paul Pelosi, who was sleeping in boxer shorts and a pajama top, and demanded to know where “Nancy” was.
