Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton’s criminal prosecution trial team secures life sentence for sex offender who shot deputy in the face
“When the call came over the radio, Deputy Lehmann was visiting his family at a local Halloween trick-or-treat event in downtown La Grange. The deputy left his family and, upon arriving on scene, volunteered to open the door to Mateen’s room. When he did, Mateen discharged a shotgun, striking Deputy Lehmann in the face and permanently blinding him.” – Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, August 11, 2022
