> Minnesota nonprofit Feeding Our Future > Ms. Bock herself had funneled money to her boyfriend at the time and used it to take trips to Las Vegas and rent Lamborghinis. She didn't betray the mission and did feed her future. Some people just take things literally, can't blame them /s > Another defendant, Salim Said — a 36-year-old who oversaw one of the bogus kitchens — was convicted of 20 counts, also including wire fraud and bribery. > Mr. Said’s operation, for instance, said it had fed 6,000 a day, more than all the children in its ZIP code. They were stealing from hungry children, this will probably not end well for them. Better stay in isolation in prison, for safety. > But she sued the state government, saying officials were discriminating against her network because it served many African immigrants and their children. Aha, lean into the "racism" and "discrimination", hoping the federal govt. will be intimidated. As Cpt. Kirk said "The best defense is a good offense, and I intend to start offending right now."

From someone who has been to jail: stealing from the government, even if you're taking money from the mouths of babes, will be seen as a respectable hustle.

  > What is up with this conception that there is some sort of moral death squad running the pecking order among inmates in prisons. I don't know. I am not saying it's right that it happens that way but it does. I imagine it's country and maybe even state based. Federal vs state prison, too. I just know from someone who worked in a corrections department overseeing the prison system in a US state. https://abcnews.go.com/US/prison-living-hell-pedophiles/story?id=90004 https://abcnews.go.com/US/prison-living-hell-pedophiles/stor... Don't know if it will necessarily apply to people who stole from children instead of feeding them.

Amazing that this is being downvoted. To everyone the "righteous" side: your thieving overlords wear this "savior" disguise as a disguise. Your putting it on won't ever make you one of them.

  > Amazing that this is being downvoted. Very strange, isn't. I didn't write it a "sides" thing, just a bunch of criminals who claimed they were feeding $90M worth of meals to children, and instead stole the funds. These were certainly the dumbest one. We'd think everyone would be cheering and wanting more of this to be discovered. But somehow the discussion shifted to DOGE and I guess people think this is somehow DOGE related? And if that's the case, better let criminals go just as long as it doesn't bolster any DOGE-related thing? Or something.. But this is not even DOGE related https://www.justice.gov/usao-mn/pr/federal-jury-finds-feeding-our-future-mastermind-and-co-defendant-guilty-250-million https://www.justice.gov/usao-mn/pr/federal-jury-finds-feedin... from what I can see. So who knows...
