You’d think with 250m she’d be able to disappear from the grid.

[WantingMore]

That's a lot of money but, this has happened all across the US and beyond. I would expect there are a lot more. I love accountability. Lock them up. 🇺🇸

[Kevinbilltown]

She needs life in jail only right punishment for the people who lost out

[TammyClaymore]

People wonder why they are afraid to donate cause they don’t see it

[TimHarlan-wv]

THIS SHOULD BE ON EVERY CHANNEL! WHERE'S THE OUTRAGE? WHERE'S THE PROTESTERS?

[buddyluka]

I blame the government for handing out this money with zero oversight. These petty crooks are just the pawns. And what did they do with all that money. Follow the money.

[Cletus_the_Elder]

Only a small fraction recovered? Then they need to stay in prison until all of it is accounted for.

[BajatheChickenMan]

A drop in the bucket. All of that money was stolen.

[kameltoes]

You cant hide $250 million. Follow the money..

[jjchan]

The other 45-50 defendants are Somali.

[polomaseratti]

The rest of the money is in Somalia now

[KayKaym]

Fraud on this level should mean prison for life.

[samueltooke]

Stop using taxes to pay for non profits.

[janeclayton]

These greedy fraudsters are so vile and outrageous. Time for some real justice for everyone who lies and steals and thinks this is okay.

[tbet]

Look who is calling those crooks criminals ! The master of Minnesota Tampon Tim !😂

[Gob-issy]

ABC not showing the Somali crew responsible for this, just the yt woman. Every day they omit, the shape the stories .

[sheilawalsh]

There's so much stealing and cheating its unbelievable

[skipfluck]

Now we see why the Dems are so pissed about what Doge is doing.

[KCKat]

Of course it's in MN! Tampon Tim country!

[DRventura]

Always sickening when we hear of these stories. Makes it bad for others who actually want to help and try to open a similar organization. There is a great deal of poverty across the globe and these people and others could have done so much good with the funds provided. Instead, they only went into the venture for GREED. Most unfortunate, that these kinds of crimes do not give such criminals life in jail.
