Four whistleblowers who were fired after reporting Attorney General Ken Paxton to the FBI vowed Monday to continue their legal fight with their former boss, promising to expose his alleged wrongdoing by forcing him and others to publicly testify.
Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton said he is "re-energized" after his months-long suspension from office in his first interview since his impeachment trial acquittal.In late September 2020, the whistleblowers reported Paxton to the FBI for bribery and, after they were fired, sued for wrongful termination and retaliation. The suit was nearly settled for $3.
And they vowed that their trial would be free of the political influence that they said affected the outcome of Paxton’s trial in the Texas Senate. In a shot at Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick, Brickman said their lawsuit wouldn’t feature a judge who received $3 million from a pro-Paxton group ahead of the trial.Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton returned to work on Monday for the first time in months following his impeachment.
"Although political pressure may have thwarted justice this month, we will continue our fight," Brickman said. "The fact is that [the Office of the Attorney General] initiated discussions that led to the abatement and the Attorney General’s request for funding, " wrote Joseph Knight, who represents Vassar.
