Law enforcement considering criminally charging Nancy Pelosi’s husband: report

Paul Pelosi, the husband of Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), could face criminal charges over a vehicle incident that occurred Friday in Northern California, The New York Times reported Saturday.

According to a news release from the Napa County Sheriff’s Office, Mr. Pelosi is under investigation as the driver of a vehicle that struck a parked vehicle before “leaving the scene,” the Times reported. Pelosi told investigators that “he knew he had hit something but didn’t know what and that he kept driving his car, which stopped running a short time later,” the Times reported.

Given Mr. Pelosi’s age of 86, the sheriff’s office plans to submit a request to the Department of Motor Vehicles to evaluate his ability to drive, per the Times.

“Mr. Pelosi has been involved in other car crashes, one as a teenager and another four years ago,” the Times’ report reads.

“When he was 16, he was behind the wheel of a car that crashed. His brother, a passenger, was killed. In 2022, he pleaded guilty to driving under the influence of alcohol in connection with a crash in Napa County.”
