SOMALI FRAUDSTERS ARRESTED FOR $90 MILLION STOLEN
Somali fraud rings have finally started to see real consequences over the past few days in Minneapolis, Minnesota. The rampant fraud occurring in this state, originally broke to the media by independent journalist Nick Shirley, has been a massive issue for tax payers. The fraud shown has cost the Minnesota tax payer millions of dollars so far. The federal government pledged to investigate the fraud taking place; with Trump assigning JD Vance as the lead for this investigatory committee. Now, arrests have finally been made. Let’s take a look at how we got here, and where the prosecutions are going.
Independent journalist and Youtuber Nick Shirley broke this story with the help of a whistle blowing inside source. Nick, along with his source, investigated ‘day cares’ and ‘at home hospice care clinics’ run by Somali immigrants. What they found was millions and millions of tax payer dollars being spent on these day cares and health clinics. This normally would not be an issue if the businesses were legitimate. However, they demonstrated how many of these Somali run operations were empty buildings. They lied about how many people they took care of, or how many kids they watched during the day. This effectively meant that the Somali immigrant population running these fake businesses are receiving millions of tax payer dollars for doing literally nothing in return. There was even some speculation that portions of the money was being shipped back to Somalia to fund terrorist organizations, such as the mujahideen.
How is this possible? Democrat leadership in cities such as Minneapolis simply hasn’t audited these organizations correctly. With Somali representation for this district in the form of Ilhan Omar, many have speculated that this was allowed on purpose. That was only the start of the fraud that was exposed by Nick Shirley; unfortunately, the full extent of the fraud is much larger and nationwide. However, we will stick with the fraud occurring in Minneapolis due to the prosecutions only covering this specific instance as of now.
The DOJ has now officially arrested and charged 15 individuals involved in this Somali fraud ring. The total amount of money defrauded from the American tax payer from just these 15 individuals was approximately $90 million. This demonstrates the extent of this fraud. How many more countless fraudsters are still out there? The total amount being stolen from American citizens through fake day cares and hospice centers must be insurmountable. Here is the public list of names of those who have been arrested so far:
Fahima Egeh Mahamud
Jillaine Mertens
Mustafa Dayib
Abdulbasit Ibrahim
Deborah Hodges
Ahmed Othman Kadar
Charles Wayne Healey
Katherin Suzan Larsen-Guthmiller
Shamso Ahmed Hassan
Hanaan Mursal Yusuf
Cynthia Allen
Candice Langley
Sharmaine Meadows
Another related suspect, Muhamad Omar, was reportedly on the run from law enforcement. Once local authorities had him surrounded, Muhamad proceeded to jump off of a 4 story building to escape. Thankfully, he was apprehended shortly after. This just goes to show the desperate nature of these suspects. They know their game is over, and the current administration has shown the truth to the American people.
According to Assistant Attorney General Colin McDonald of Minnesota, he explained the dangers of this fraud that extend past just monetary loss during his press conference on the arrests. He explained how the health care aspect of the fraud could be deadly due to lack of actual care. He was quoted during the press conference saying, “One patient was supposed to be receiving 24 / 7 care, but he was actually being serviced by a fraudster, and received no services… This patient was later found dead”. Not only are they stealing our tax dollars through this fraud, but also neglecting those who really need the care to the point of death. This is unacceptable.
Sec. Robert Kenedy was also in attendance at this press conference. He was quoted saying, “This was not a paperwork error… It was not a technical violation. This was organized theft that exploited the most vulnerable children in America, deceived families, stole taxpayer dollars meant to help children with autism access legitimate care and support.”
Due to the large scale of this fraud, the DOJ has announced they would be adding 15 new attorneys to aid in the prosecution of these criminals. This is only the beginning of the current administration cracking down on rampant democrat sanctioned fraud. As the committee that investigates this crime grows, and as more information on the expansive network of fraudsters is exposed, all we can hope for is more arrests. This doesn’t just affect Minnesota, this is a nationwide issue. To quote Assistant Attorney General Collin Mcdonald once more, he said during an interview with Nick Shirley, “We are public servants… we need everybody to be reporting what they see so that we can try our best to root out this fraud”. So, if you see something that looks like a fraudulent business, report it. Who knows, you may be saving your fellow tax payers millions of dollars.
