Feeding Our Future, COVID Fraud Indictments in Minnesota
Federal prosecutors indicted 47 people associated with the Minnesota nonprofit "Feeding Our Future" for allegedly stealing $250 million from a federal food program. Executive Director Amy Bach is accused of overseeing a scheme where defendants used COVID-19 relief funds to purchase luxury cars and real estate instead of feeding hungry children. The DOJ described the case as the largest pandemic-related fraud scheme discovered to date.
