UPDATE: Charges being filed against man accused of attacking Paul Pelosi include attempted murder, residential burglary and assault with a deadly weapon, among others, San Francisco District Attorney Brooke Jenkins announces.
The district attorney’s remarks come as the gruesome attack on the husband of the House speaker is being mocked and dismissed in conservative, far-right social media, even among some Republicans leaders and those at the highest levels of social power. San Francisco’s police chief has also said the attack was targeted.
Paul Pelosi remains hospitalized in San Francisco after undergoing surgery for a fractured skull and other injuries. Speaker Pelosi, who was in Washington, D.C., at the time, returned swiftly to California. Unlike presidents, the congressional leaders have security protection for themselves, but not their families.
The incident sparked fresh security concerns for lawmakers and other elected officials before the midterms.
