| Description | 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.
A Tarrant County judge has been appointed to hear the case, the sources said.
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 admitted he was not registered and paid a $1,000 civil fine last year. He has said he thought that the fine ended the matter.
Anthony Holm, a spokesman for Paxton, could not immediately be reached for comment. |
