Frances Hall, the widow of San Antonio-based trucking mogul Bill Hall, Jr., was
sentenced to ten years deferred adjudication and ordered to pay $150,000.00 in
restitution for her role in a workers’ compensation fraud on July 10 by the
147th District Court in Austin pursuant to a plea agreement entered the
prior May. She is also ordered to undergo unspecified “treatment,” per
the probation department’s recommendation.
Mrs. Hall co-founded Bill Hall Jr. Trucking with her husband. The Division’s
fraud unit found that Mrs. Hall underreported payroll information and concealed
payroll reports to her workers’ compensation insurance carrier between 2006 and
2016, which allowed her to avoid paying approximately $9 million in work comp
premiums.
Mrs. Hall was convicted in September 2016 of felony murder in the death of her
husband, but received only a two-year prison sentence. She has since been
released.
