Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton has called for the resignation of state Rep. Jeffrey Leach, R-Plano after he admitted to texting a judge on behalf of Robert Roberson, a death row inmate whose execution was temporarily halted earlier this month.
"His conduct demonstrates that he is unfit to serve in any capacity overseeing our judicial system and unfit to serve as a Member of the Texas House," Paxton, who has opposed halting Roberson's execution, said . "Leach must resign."
