Spoke with an attorney and confirmed expungement in CA and TX are different. He explained an expungement in CA may still show on a background check while one in TX should remove the incident entirely.
He advised that I ride it out and if anything comes up to answer honestly. The time passed from the date of the incident to now exceeds the 5 year mark so I would still qualify for an LTC. As for answering incorrectly, he felt I had a very reasonable explanation for this and again to answer honestly should they question it.
For those curious about how to answer this in the future - Use the advice others provided here and speak with an attorney, or if the time passed from the date of the incident doesn't disqualify you just list it.
