Brothers Plead Guilty in $16 Million Feeding Our Future Fraud Case

Brothers Abdulkadir Nur Salah and Abdi Nur Salah have pleaded guilty to wire fraud in connection with the $250 million Feeding Our Future scandal, which defrauded a federal child nutrition program. Abdulkadir admitted to a higher level of culpability and faces a recommended prison sentence of 9 to 11.5 years, while Abdi agreed to approximately two years. The scheme involved their former restaurant, Safari, which purportedly served thousands of meals daily, receiving $16 million in federal funds. Prosecutors revealed that Abdulkadir paid kickbacks to Aimee Bock, the former executive director of Feeding Our Future, highlighting the extensive fraudulent operations. The trial for other defendants, including Bock and Salim Said, is set to begin soon, but two of the original four have now entered guilty pleas, changing the course of the proceedings.
