A federal judge sentenced Aimee Bock, founder and former leader of Minnesota nonprofit Feeding Our Future, to nearly 42 years in prison after her conviction for orchestrating a $250 million fraud scheme. Prosecutors said Feeding Our Future falsely claimed to provide millions of pandemic-era meals to children while siphoning contract payments into sham vendors and lavish personal expenses. The case exposed major vulnerabilities in emergency food-relief programs and prompted federal scrutiny of how pandemic nutrition funds were awarded and overseen.
