From NBC Local Texas News Channel 5:
Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton has been indicted on three charges by a grand jury in Collin County, two people close to the case told NBC 5 on Saturday.
The indictments were issued on Tuesday and immediately sealed, the sources said, adding they are set to be unsealed as early as Monday in Collin County.
...
The grand jury and two special prosecutors have been investigating whether Paxton committed a securities crime by acting as a broker without being licensed.
Paxton is the same douchenozzle who defied the Supreme Court in the wake of the marriage equality ruling, by urging county clerks to refuse to marry gay couples. He said this back in June:
"Friday, the United States Supreme Court again ignored the text and spirit of the Constitution to manufacture a right that simply does not exist. In so doing, the Court weakened itself and weakened the rule of law, but did nothing to weaken our resolve to protect religious liberty and return to democratic self-government in the face of judicial activists attempting to tell us how to live.
Indeed, for those who respect the rule of law, this lawless ruling presents a fundamental dilemma: A ruling by the U.S. Supreme Court is considered the law of the land, but a judge-made edict that is not based in the law or the Constitution diminishes faith in our system of government and the rule of law."

How do you like the rule of law now, Kenny?
Paxton is also a climate change denying nightmare:
Texas’ Republican leadership clearly disdains President Obama’s landmark proposal to combat climate change by slashing carbon emissions, and Attorney General Ken Paxton has announced plans to sue over the rules.

For a corrupt-to-the-core, newly indicted fuckwit, Paxton sure seems to have lots of ideas about jurisprudence. He faces possible disbarment as a result of this latest indictment.
