A wide-ranging investigation involving multiple claims of alleged arson or suspicious fires as well as questionable theft reports, suspected insurance fraud, suspected forged property deeds and other alleged financial related crimes resulted in the indictment of a Williamson County man.  On August 12, 2024, Curtis Meeks pled guilty to one count of first-degree felony forgery in case 20-1902-K26.

In 2019, NICB opened an investigation based on a referral involving Curtis Meeks and a reported theft and arson of Meeks' home.  The investigation subsequently expanded into numerous suspected acts of fraud allegedly involving Meeks and his purported associates resulting in law enforcement interest from the Austin Fire Department Arson Unit, Austin Police Department Financial Crimes Unit, and the Texas Department of Safety Criminal Investigations Division.

On October 4, 2024, Meeks was sentenced to two years in the Texas Department of Corrections.
