"Outside Lawyer Reveals Ken Paxton's Full Approval of Nate Paul Investigation"

Houston criminal defense lawyer Brandon Cammack testified at Ken Paxton's impeachment trial, stating that he was hired by Paxton to work on a criminal investigation into complaints made by Austin real estate investor Nate Paul. Cammack claimed that he reported directly to Paxton and received his approval for every step of the investigation, including issuing subpoenas. However, the relationship ended when Cammack received cease and desist letters from top officials in the attorney general's office. Cammack's hiring forms the basis of one of the impeachment articles against Paxton, alleging misuse of official powers.
