2 Apologies Presented During Hearing for Pelosi Attacker

Earlier this month, federal Judge Jacqueline Scott Corley closed a sentencing hearing for David DePape, the man who attacked Paul Pelosi, the husband of former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, but without give DePape the opportunity to address the court. That procedural error resulted in what the AP called an “unusual resentencing” hearing on Tuesday, accompanied by a double set of apologies.

• Excuses #1: The first came from Corley herself, who said the fact that they had to show up in court again was “all my fault,” according to KGO. She added, “I’m truly sorry for my mistake” and said she would “carefully consider” anything DePape had to say as she reconsidered her previous sentence: 30 years for assault, with one concurrent sentence of 20 years for kidnapping. .
