The mugshot of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s husband Paul was revealed Monday, two weeks after the octogenarian was arrested for drunk driving.
Paul Pelosi, 82, was nabbed just before midnight on May 28 in Napa County, California, and charged with one count of driving under the influence and another for driving with a blood alcohol content level of 0.08 or higher.
He was returning to his and Nancy’s vineyard, River Run, from a dinner party when a 48-year-old man driving a 2014 Jeep crashed into his Porsche.
The California Democrat’s husband was booked at around 4:13 a.m. Sunday and released a few hours later at 7:26 a.m., the online records show. Pelosi’s bail had been set at $5,000 on the two misdemeanors.
In his mugshot, Pelosi is wearing a button down shirt with the top button open and a brown jacket while looking sullen at the camera. He has yet to be formally charged and the local district attorney’s office said last week that it has not decided yet what, if any, charges, will be filed against him.
The congresswoman was in Providence, Rhode Island to give the commencement speech at Brown University mere hours after his arrest.
Authorities in California have refused to release any footage showing Paul’s arrest, saying it could “jeopardize” the investigation.
The California Highway Patrol on Thursday denied a public records request seeking the release of body and dashboard camera video documenting the bust.
The House Speaker’s husband is a successful venture capitalist, and the pair amassed an estimated personal fortune of more than $110 million by 2018, according to Open Secrets, a non-profit that tracks money in politics.

When Paul was 16, his 19-year-old brother died after the sports car Paul was driving flipped over during a joyride in San Mateo, the San Francisco Examiner reported at the time. A cop told the outlet at the time that Paul said his older brother had urged him to slow down in the moments before the crash.
The world would be a safer better place in both of their obituaries were released tomorrow.
Agree with your statement 100%
You know, I am not a big fan of spending time and effort on “exposing” stuff that is very general knowledge. It seems a bit petty to me to try to denigrate family for minor crimes that will be dismissed and forgotten in 10 days. Do an expose’ on the entire Pelosi (starting with Nancy) dynasty. Do hundreds of pages on the nefarious past, present, and future of these oligarchs. Have dozens of articles published about the various tentacles of their seedy life. Flood the zone with every dirty deed the are doing and have done, and include, if you wish, minor stories about their drunken lifestyle.
Is that a doctored MUG SHOT? Dressed in a sport coat, no booking number, eyes barely red. I read that he was not giben a blood test for at least 5 hrs. Wouldn’t that be enought to have a nice picture taken?
Put horns on him, and snakes on his Wifes head, you have Satan and Medusa!
This POS is worse than Pelosi. We know what a shit bag she is. Got to get Trump. Quick media, get their eyes and attacks back onto the Orange man. Can’t wait to see how the Double Tiered Justice system will handle this one. I know let’s attack the Police Officer’s family, protest outside of his home. We will call him a racist-ahhh nope can’t use that, Pelosi’s ol man is white. Let’s see, how about we blame Trump for collusion of the police against Pelosi. Yeah that will work-go get it media.
