A federal jury convicted Texas clinic owner Kevin D. Curry on nine counts in a scheme involving more than $26 million in false TRICARE claims for medically unnecessary or unprovided mental-health care; the FBI had seized his gold Cybertruck months earlier.
DOJ said evidence presented after the verdict showed Curry paid more than $5.5 million in kickbacks to recruit active-duty service members, veterans and family members for transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) they did not qualify for and, in many cases, never received. TRICARE paid approximately $17 million. Prosecutors also said Curry presented himself as a doctor, used physicians’ credentials without their knowledge or consent, and directed employees to fabricate records.
Agents seized the 2024 Cybertruck on Jan. 21, 2026. When charges were announced in June, DOJ reported about $200,000 in seized assets, including $136,022 in cash and the Tesla; DOJ described the truck as worth more than $100,000, while FBI forfeiture paperwork valued it at $73,230. Restitution and forfeiture proceedings are still determining what else can be recovered. The jury convicted Curry of three counts each of health-care fraud, illegal health-care kickbacks and monetary transactions in criminally derived property. Each count carries a maximum 10-year penalty; sentencing is pending, and DOJ did not state his custody status.
