BREAKING: Minnesota fraud leader Aimee Bock sentenced

While the DOJ charged 15 people in the "shocking" $90,000,000 the Minnesota fraud schemes, one person, Aimee Bock, who was the leader of the scammers, has just been sentenced to prison. And while it was reasonable for anyone to be skeptical about what punishment would be meted out, Bock has received a 41.5 year sentence.

Just hours before this writing, a judge sentenced Bock, the leader of a Minnesota nonprofit agency to 41 years and 6 months in prison from the $250,000,000 fraud case that thanks to young journalist Nick Shirley uncovered because he is a real journalist and the Trump administration isn't playing games.

Bock ran "Feeding Our Future" that pretended to provide millions of needy kids with meals during the pandemic. The miscreant had to admit: “I understand I failed. I failed the public, my family, everyone.” 

“Feeding Our Future operated like a cash pipeline, open to anyone willing to submit fraudulent claims and pay kickbacks,” prosecutors said in a court filing. “The ripple effects of her actions are profound, immeasurable, and will have lasting consequences for both Minnesota and the nation.”

Kenneth Udoibok, her attorney, asked the court for a much shorter sentence as Bock gave investigators important information and argued she was unfairly depicted as the brains behind the fraud. He claimed that her two co-defendants were responsible for running the scams.

There was a boat-load of Somalis from the community, the largest in Minnesota, who were also convicted for participating in the food fraud schemes that have gone on for years in courts.

Meanwhile, Minnesota Rep. Ilhan Omar (D) is not answering questions and has even been implicated by Bock to be part of the scheme to bilk millions of taxpayer funds and put it into their own pockets and some in the Somali community.

And let's not forget some of the other actors in the scenario: Gov. Tampon Tim Walz, and Minnesota AG Keith Ellison.

Now that the sentence has been announced, many are more hopeful that those politicians who have historically been untouchable, may soon be sleeping in the same room where their toilet and sink are attached as one unit.
