Texas Atty. Gen. Ken Paxton will stand trial on securities fraud charges in April, 8 years after indictment.
Texas Atty. Gen. Ken Paxton will stand trial on securities fraud charges in April, a judge ruled Monday, more than eight years after the Republican was indicted and a month after his acquittal in an impeachment trial over separate corruption accusations.
The scheduling of the trial comes at a moment when Paxton has appeared politically recharged after the Texas Senate acquitted him on impeachment charges over accusations that he used his office to help a political donor. Since then, Paxton has returned to his job and is supporting primary challengers to Republicans who led the impeachment investigation. The FBI is still investigating Paxton over the allegations of abuse of office.
