The judge overseeing the case against alleged Paul Pelosi attack suspect David DePape revealed last week that she worked with Christine Pelosi, the daughter of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) and Paul Pelosi.
Judge Loretta “Lori” Giorgi said she and the younger Pelosi, who has worked as a Democrat activist and has never held elected office, worked together in the San Francisco City Attorney’s office in the 1990s. The pair have not interacted with one another in years, Giorgi said.
Christine Pelosi is one of Nancy and Paul Pelosi’s five children.
“I do want to make a disclosure on the record that the daughter of Mr. Pelosi, Christine Pelosi, and I were in the city attorney’s office together in the 90s,” Giorgi told the court, according to local media affiliate ABC7. “And I have disclosed to counsel the interactions that I had when she and I were together. I haven’t seen or heard or talked to Ms. Pelosi after she left the office. I do see her here today.”
No one objected to Giorgie’s ties with the Pelosi family during the hearing on Nov. 4. ABC7 reporters in the courtroom also said that Christine Pelosi, who some analysts say might attempt to seek election in her mother’s congressional district when she retires, attended the hearing but later left through a back door.
