Feeding Our Future 'architect': 40-year sentence sought

And a ringleader in the massive Feeding Our Future fraud scheme awaiting justice with his sentencing scheduled for tomorrow morning. Federal prosecutors are demanding 40 years in prison for Salim Saeed, calling him the leading architect of the largest COVID-19 fraud scheme in the United States. He was convicted in March of last year. Saeed and Feeding Our Future executive director Amy Bach were both convicted of orchestrating that sprawling $250 million fraud scheme. Prosecutors say Saeed franchised the fraud by using his Safari restaurant to deliberately weaponize a safety net program designed for hungry children during the pandemic. While he claimed to distribute some 6,000 meals every day, FBI cameras revealed an average of just 40 people showing up, allowing him to siphon more than $44 million. He used the taxpayer money to fund a lavish lifestyle that included homes, property, and a fleet of high-end vehicles. he will have a crew in the courtroom we will have a crew in the courtroom tomorrow and bring you the judge's decision on air and online as soon as that sentence is handed down we're
