However, controversy swirled around the allegations after a weird 911 call, leading many to wonder if it was a staged attack. Now, the attack footage is finally going to be released.
After the attack, news outlets, including Fox News and The New York Times, called for the footage to be released. Once several news outlets filed a motion, it was determined that the footage would be available, and now it is.
The footage from the body camera was allegedly played in court in December. According to the Daily Wire, the footage allegedly showed the suspect, David DePape, hitting Pelosi with a hammer.

DePape reportedly broke into the residence. He then screamed, “Where’s Nancy?” but could not find her. The Daily Wire says, “DePape told first responders at the scene that he was sick of the ‘level of lies’ from politicians in Washington, DC, and ‘came here to have a little chat with [Paul Pelosi’s] wife,’ according to a court filing.”

He reportedly had further plans to attack other people after this one. Other high-profile individuals on his list included Hunter Biden, Tom Hanks, and Gavin Newsome.

However, the attack happened just before the midterms, leading many people to wonder if it was another midterm stunt by the Democrats. News outlets are eager to get their hands on the footage used as evidence. This could support the theory that he was angry and out to harm Nancy Pelosi, which would dispel rumors that it was a midterm stunt. Likewise, this footage could prove that it was a media stunt.
So far, the suspect continues to plead not guilty to the state and federal charges that have been filed against him. He continues to sit in jail without bail. The footage may be released as early as next week.
