Bryan man sentenced to 14 years in insurance fraud scheme
A U.S. district judge sentenced a Bryan man Monday to 14 years in prison for his role in scheming more than $3 million out of automobile insurance companies.
Earlie Dickerson, 41, was found guilty by a jury in October of engaging in conspiracy to defraud and 30 counts of mail fraud between February 2007 and December 2009.
During the eight-day trial, prosecutors Al Balboni and Adrienne Frazior presented evidence that, during his time as manager at Sanjoh & Associates, Dickerson worked with several others, including a former local chiropractor, Chase Lindsey, to recruit "clients" involved in car accidents to be represented by the Houston-based law firm and receive services for alleged injuries.
Clients would be sent to see Lindsey at one of four Bryan chiropractic clinics used by Dickerson and his co-defendants -- Lindsey, Brittany Jessie, Edward Graham and Marion Young also have been convicted of conspiracy -- as a part of their scheme. All of the clinics were owned by one or more of the co-defendants. As one would shut down, another would open, according to prosecutors.
