WACO, Texas (KWTX) – Former Waco attorney Adam Hoffman was released early from jail for good behavior.
Hoffman, 49, began serving a 60-day jail sentence on April 27 for sexually abusing a young boy.
He pleaded guilty April 16 to indecent assault and displaying harmful materials to a minor, both Class A misdemeanors punishable by up to a year in jail.
His trial on first-degree felony continuous sexual abuse of a young child charges ended in a mistrial in June 2025 after jurors deadlocked 7-5 in favor of finding him guilty. The Attorney General’s Office reduced the charges in exchange for his guilty pleas.
Visiting Judge Roy Sparkman doubled Hoffman’s original 30-day plea deal to 60 days at sentencing. Hoffman, who has since moved to Nebraska, is under a lifetime protective order prohibiting him from contacting the victim.
He is not required to register as a sex offender based on the misdemeanor charges to which he pleaded guilty.
