Pulido was well aware of Caballero’s extensive criminal history, including the sexual deviancy of Caballero, as the accordionist had numerous run-ins with the law while they toured together. In one instance, sexual assault charges against Caballero were dismissed under the supervision of Hildago County District Attorney Rene Guerra, Pulido’s great-uncle.
Pulido himself is no stranger to unsettling sexual stories, as he is well-known for a music video that featured himself cross-dressing and simulating public masturbation. He’s likewise shared pornography on his social media accounts on multiple occasions.
“It’s disgusting, disqualifying, and exactly why South Texans will reject Pulido in November,” NRCC spokesman Christian Martinez said of the revelation in a statement on social media.
Creepy @PulidoForTexas spent years shoulder-to-shoulder with a convicted child predator, brought him into schools with kids, and bragged on tape about protecting his pedo bandmate.
