Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton was filmed celebrating New Year's Eve in Dubai in 2024 with two American businessmen who had been indicted on federal healthcare fraud charges months earlier, according to The Wall Street Journal.
Paxton and his girlfriend, Tracy Duhon, watched fireworks overlooking the Burj Khalifa on 31 December. Guests included Anosh Ahmed and Sameer Suhail, who were indicted over allegations involving more than $15 million (about £11.3 million) taken from a Chicago hospital. Ahmed had donated $190,000 (about £143,500) to Paxton's campaign, including $25,000 (about £18,000) days after his indictment.
