Paxton's career follows a repeatable pattern:
- Private Practice (2001-2014): Servergy securities fraud

- Attorney General (2015-present): Nate Paul bribery
Constant: Dunn/Wilks money → Protection racket
Key Findings

Paxton operates using dual-role relationships (lawyer/client + business partner) that create compromised actors who remain loyal due to mutual criminal exposure.
