KVUE: “Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton’s securities fraud case likely will not be going to trial in April after prosecutors and Paxton’s attorneys have reached a tentative pre-trial diversion agreement, three sources tell KVUE Senior Reporter Tony Plohetski and the Austin American-Statesman.
That agreement could end a nine-year legal saga that would have gone to trial on April 15 and for which Paxton faced up to 99 years behind bars.”
