Pulido onstage at school fundraiser with registered sex offender, fueling campaign scrutiny

Democratic candidate Bobby Pulido headlined a 2018 Edinburg, Texas school fundraiser onstage with Frankie Caballero, a registered sex offender. Pulido has said he was unaware of Caballero’s status, but Axios reports indicate a decades-long professional relationship and continued performances after Caballero’s release, with Caballero later facing new charges, prompting renewed scrutiny of Pulido’s ties in his race against Rep. Monica De La Cruz.
