A coalition of news organizations, including The Associated Press, has filed a court motion in San Francisco seeking to access evidence against the man charged in last year's attack on former U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's husband, Paul Pelosi. During a Dec. 14 preliminary hearing, the San Francisco district attorney's office introduced audio and video evidence against David Depape, the man accused of attacking Paul Pelosi. But the office has refused to release the evidence to the media. Attorneys for the coalition said in the motion filed Wednesday that "the public and press have standing to assert their rights of access to court records and proceedings."

The man who allegedly broke into U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's home and beat her 82-year-old husband in October has pleaded not guilty to six charges, including attempted murder. Suspect David DePape entered the plea in state court Wednesday. Authorities say he had planned to kidnap the speaker — who was out of town — when he broke into the couple's San Francisco home on Oct. 28. Instead he severely beat her husband, Paul Pelosi, with a hammer in an attack that was witnessed by two police officers and shocked the political world. The public defender's office declined to comment.
