The fifth day of the impeachment trial of Ken Paxton continues in Austin on Monday.
The first week of the Ken Paxton impeachment trial ended Friday with testimony from a veteran lawman who said he tried to warn his boss about the issues he is facing now.
Evidence shows Paxton hired Houston Attorney Brandon Cammack to pursue an investigation of Paul’s allegation about the FBI and other parties, against the advice of Maxwell and other members of Paxton’s top staff, some of whom testified earlier in the trial. Paxton's defense lawyers are attacking all the impeachment witnesses. Attorney Mitch Little confronted Vassar.
Texas Lieutenant Governor Dan Patrick, who serves as a judge for this trial, said the case is about half over.The Republican-led Texas House of Representatives voted overwhelmingly in May to impeach the attorney general, largely based on his former deputies' claims that he used his power to help a wealthy donor who reciprocated with favors including hiring a woman with whom Paxton had an extramarital affair.
