Democratic Texas judge apologizes for joke about accident that left governor paralyzed
By Morgan Phillips | Fox News

    A Democratic judge in Texas apologized Friday for saying the state's governor, Greg Abbott, ‘hates trees because one fell on him,’ a reference to an accident 35 years ago which left Abbott paralyzed.

Travis County Judge Sarah Eckhardt made the quip during a discussion at the Texas Tribune Festival in Austin about the Texas Legislature overriding local ordinances such one in the state capital regarding the cutting down of trees.. Eckhardt's comment drew laughs from the panel's audience.
