Man who attacked Nancy Pelosi's husband again sentenced to 30 years in prison

Context: District Judge Jacqueline Scott Corley reopened DePape's sentencing after realizing she did not give him a chance to speak, which is required by federal law.

• The sentencing remained the same, with DePape receiving the maximum sentence for each count, 20 years for one and 30 for the other.
• Both will be served concurrently and he will get credit for the 18 months he's already served.

What they're saying: "I'm sorry for what I did," DePape said Tuesday in court according to AP.

• He added that he never meant to hurt Pelosi and should have left the home.
• DePape said he was not doing well at the time of the attack but has since reconnected with his mother and other family members, who are helping him move forward.

Speaking Tuesday, Corley said DePape's sentence must serve as a deterrence to others seeking to commit political violence.

• "The message has to be out there that it's absolutely unacceptable to our democracy," she said.

The big picture: DePape's attack on Paul Pelosi shocked lawmakers from both parties and highlighted the surging threats of violence they and other public officials face.

• Paul Pelosi underwent surgery to repair a skull fracture and serious injuries to his right arm and hands after the attack.
