The sentencing, handed down Thursday, was over her role in a massive scheme that fraudulently billed taxpayers for tens of millions of meals that were never provided to low-income children during the pandemic.
The fraud was centered in Minnesota’s large Somali community and involved dozens of defendants.
Bock, who founded Feeding Our Future, was convicted in March 2025 on multiple counts, including conspiracy, bribery, and wire fraud. She had been the central figure coordinating the operation that exploited relaxed federal rules during the COVID-19 emergency.

In arecent jailhouse interview, Bock explicitly stated she “struggles to believe” Rep. Ilhan Omar did not know what was happening.
Bock claimed Omar’s office repeatedly intervened to keep the lucrative waivers in place, allowing fraudulent billing to continue.
Omar’s name appeared in emails and messages entered as evidence during the trial, and she even filmed a promotional video at one of the key fraudulent sites, the Safari Restaurant in Minneapolis, claiming it was serving thousands of meals a day.
