Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton is now suing at least two doctors who have violated a Texas law (SB 14) that prevents gender transition, and medical interventions such as puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones, and genital mutilation surgeries for children, Texas Family Project reported late last month.
One of the doctors being sued is Hector Granados, an El Paso doctor. He is being sued for giving children between the ages of 12 and 17 cross-sex hormones and puberty blockers, as well as falsifying records in an attempt to cover up his crimes. The lawsuit names fifteen patients who allegedly received such interventions from Dr. Granados. If found guilty, Granados would lose his medical license as well as face financial punishment....
Paxton filed a similar lawsuit in October against a Dallas-based pediatrician who violated SB 14. He is being accused of providing cross-sex hormones to at least 21 children, as well as falsifying records. Regarding the lawsuits, Paxton said, “Texas is cracking down on doctors illegally prescribing dangerous ‘gender transition’ drugs to children. State law forbids prescribing these interventions to minors because they have irreversible and damaging effects. Any physician found doing so will be prosecuted to the full extent of the law.”
The Texas Family Project reported in August that, despite the passage of SB 14, multiple sources within Texas Children’s Hospital have come forward and revealed that gender transition surgeries for children never stopped, and the doctors who do come forward are punished. Dr. Eithan Haim is under federal investigation after he revealed to Christopher Rufo that Texas Children’s Hospital is providing transgender hormones to children despite it being illegal under the new Texas law, The Dallas Express reported.
