AUSTIN, Texas — The second day of the impeachment trial of suspended Attorney General Ken Paxton was the first chance for prosecutors to hear new information from a key witness, followed by exhaustive pushback from a defense attorney.
Paxton's lead counsel, Tony Buzbee from Houston, and witness Jeff Mateer spent nearly six hours arguing, frequently interrupted by opposing lawyers who objected to the defense's line of questioning.Paxton skips out on second day of trial
However, Paxton's wife, state Sen. Angela Paxton, was present and is required to sit through the trial over the next several weeks. Paxton's lawyers dropped their attorney-client privilege objection to admitting communications with his staff. Bangert divulged details about the friendship between Paul and Paxton, who viewed themselves as victims of government overreach.
