Paul Pelosi, the 82-year-old husband of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, has been charged with driving under the influence of alcohol and causing injury by the Napa County District Attorney’s office.

“Today, the Napa County District Attorney’s Office issued a criminal complaint, filing charges against Paul Pelosi based upon an automobile collision and driving under the influence arrest on May 28th,2022,” the law enforcement agency said in a statement. “The collision occurred on State Route 29 and Oakville Cross Road at 10:17 pm.”

The press release stated that “A blood sample was taken from Mr. Pelosi at 12:32 am, and sent to the California Department of Justice for testing. Mr. Pelosi’s blood sample had a .082% blood alcohol content.”

“The charges filed today include Driving Under the Influence of Alcohol Causing Injury and Driving With .08% Blood Alcohol Level or Higher Causing Injury,” the statement continued. “Under California law, these charges can be filed as a misdemeanor or felony. Based upon the extent of the injuries suffered by the victim, the District Attorney filed misdemeanor charges. This decision is consistent with how our office handles these cases with similar injuries.”

The DA’s office noted that the potential sentence could include “up to five years of probation, a minimum of five days in jail, installation of an ignition
interlock device, fines and fees, completion of a court ordered drinking driver class, and other terms as appropriate.”

As Valiant News previously reported, Nancy Pelosi’s husband was arrested before midnight on Saturday while driving in Napa County, then booked into jail on two counts, “driving under the influence and driving with a blood alcohol content level of 0.08 or higher.”

His bail was apparently set at $5,000, while the net worth of both Pelosi’s is estimated around $120 million.

Nancy Pelosi said through her office that she will not be providing a comment on her husband Paul Pelosi Sr.’ s arrest for drunk driving.
