Democratic Senate candidate James Talarico faces criticism after the family of a child sex abuse victim disputed his claim of contact with them, stating they are 'tired of being used' in the election. Talarico accused his opponent, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, of negotiating a favorable plea deal for Adam Hoffman, a former attorney charged with child abuse. The victim's family denied providing statements to Talarico and criticized both candidates for using their case.
