A former Denton County, Texas, insurance agent has been convicted in an insurance fraud scheme that targeted elderly individuals, U.S. Attorney Sarah R. Saldana of the Northern District of Texas announced.

He faces a maximum statutory penalty of 20 years in federal prison, a $250,000 fine and restitution on each of the four counts of conviction.
