Closing Arguments in Ken Paxton Trial Begin Friday

While closing arguments in the impeachment trial of Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton start today, the trial verdict will determine whether to remove a Texas A G from office. Paxton has been accused of corruption and bribery charges involving his alleged involvement with Austin real estate developer, Nate Paul and a woman who worked for Paul. Today's closing arguments are the last chance for the State's House of Representatives to make a case that Paxton is unfit for office. A verdict from the Texas Senate could be reached as early as today.
