Fraud Behind Feeding Our Future

Najmo Ahmed just got 14 months in federal prison for stealing over $4.2 million from a child feeding program she falsely claimed to serve 1.4 million meals — while her husband helped run a Minneapolis deli that allegedly fed 3,200 kids daily. Prosecutors say she lived lavishly on the stolen cash, and she must repay $1 million. Another defendant, Asha Jama, faces a 16-month sentence for swindling $5 million from the same program using a Rochester restaurant. This scandal exposes how fraudsters exploit programs meant to feed the most vulnerable. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
