The unhinged man convicted in the brutal hammer attack against Nancy Pelosi’s husband brought along a treasure trove of survivalist gear for his brazen home invasion siege on the then House Speaker’s mansion, bombshell photographs obtained by RadarOnline.com showed.

The bizarre items seized after David DePape’s arrest included two backpacks, more than $9k in cash, sleeping bags, vitamins, solar charges, beef jerky sticks, and a unicorn costume.

David DePape, had more than $9k in cash when he broke into the home of then House Speaker Nancy Pelosi.

The federal prosecutors released some of the pictures several weeks after a jury found the 42-year-old conspiracy theorist guilty of assaulting Paul Pelosi, 83, with a dangerous weapon and attempted kidnapping.

It is still unclear why DePape, a drifter who lived in a garage in Richmond, California, brought along such a vast array of survival gear during his botched plan to kidnap the then House Speaker who was in Washington, D.C., at the time.

Aside from telling investigators he wanted to break Nancy’s kneecaps, it is unknown if he was prepped for a long siege inside the mansion or if he planned to flee with his prey.

As RadarOnline.com reported, it took jurors just eight hours to find DePape guilty during a November trial where he admitted on the stand that he was “surprised and confused” to learn Nancy was not home and his plan was “basically ruined."

"He was never my target and I'm sorry that he got hurt," DePape told the jurors about Paul.

In a police jailhouse interview, DePape railed against Hillary Clinton and accused Nancy of being the “leader of the pack” viciously targeting former President Donald Trump, and then blathered about several right-wing QAnon conspiracy theories, according to Business Insider.

DePape faces up to 50 years in federal prison when sentenced.
