Somebody got burned, and ...

Paxton is accused of encouraging investors in 2011 to put more than $600,000 into a technology company, Servergy Inc., that is based in McKinney. He did so, according to the charges, without telling the investors that he was making a commission on their investment. And, he is alleged to have misrepresented himself as an investor in the company.

There is a special prosecutor, Kent Schaffer, and news stories going back at least a month.

So why didn’t any of his Republican oponents in the primary attack Paxton on this point?

Then clearly, he should be locked up until the year 2114. Wonder why 99? Why not just 100, or 150? We are all going to feel pretty stupid if he gets out, and then in like 2120, tricks us again.

"He did so, according to the charges, without telling the investors that he was making a commission on their investment."

I plead ignorance of the investment world, but isn't it NORMAL to make a commission as an investment advisor?
