HOUSTON – An attorney and a doctor representing a Houston-based group that paid a former police captain accused of assault had little to say Wednesday about the person being charged. Mark Aguirre, 63, was arrested Tuesday and charged with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon in connection with the Oct. 19 incident. Attorney Jared Woodfill and Dr. Steven Hotze, of Liberty Center, held a news conference Wednesday to answer questions. Hotze confirmed that Aguirre was paid as a contract investigator to look into allegations of election fraud in Harris County. Hotze described the charge against Aguirre as “bogus” and said he hasn’t spoken to Aguirre since he was charged.
