The Texas Department of Insurance has hired Kyson Johnson as a special insurance fraud prosecutor in the Dallas County District Attorney’s Office. The new position, part of the Special Crimes Unit, represents the first such partnership between state and local enforcement authorities to address the major problem of insurance fraud.
“We’re excited to have filled the position with someone of Kyson’s caliber,” said Dennis Pompa, director of TDI’s Fraud Unit. “This will greatly benefit our anti-fraud efforts in a major metropolitan part of the state.”
Johnson recently served as an assistant district attorney for the Grayson County DA’s Office in Sherman, where he prosecuted all levels of felonies, including insurance fraud and other types of white collar crime, since 2001. Prior to that Johnson was a partner in the private law firm Burnett, Trahan & Johnson LLP, in Dallas.
Johnson is also a captain in the Army Reserve and served as a military attorney in Iraq for the first six months of 2004. While there Johnson prosecuted the first court martial in the Abu Ghraib prison case.
