Prosecutors are arguing in a court filing that the former leader of a Minnesota nonprofit who was convicted for her role at the center of a staggering $250 million fraud case should spend 50 years in prison. Aimee Bock ran Feeding our Future, which claimed it helped provide millions of meals to children in need during the pandemic. She is being sentenced Thursday in federal court in Minneapolis. Her lawyer argued in a separate filing that she should serve no more than 3 years in prison, saying she had been unfairly painted as the mastermind. President Donald Trump pointed to the frauds as justification for last year's federal immigration crackdown.
