Minnesota Duo Stole $250 MILLION Meant For Hungry Kids As FBI Cameras EXPOSED Empty Meal Sites

During the pandemic, a federal program paid to feed children in need. Prosecutors say a Minnesota nonprofit called Feeding Our Future turned it into the largest COVID fraud case in the country, billing about $250 million for meals that were never served, often to children who did not exist. One restaurant claimed to feed 6,000 kids a day; FBI cameras counted about 40 people. Founder Aimee Bock and restaurant co-owner Salim Said were convicted on every count, and in May 2026 Bock was sentenced to more than 41 years in federal prison.
