United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement announced it was surging assets into the Minneapolis area on Dec. 2 to target illegal immigrants from Somalia after the initial reports of welfare fraud of at least $1 billion emerged. Allegations that some of the stolen funds went to the radical Islamic terrorist group Al-Shabaab prompted a probe by the Treasury Department.
Assistant United States Attorney Joe Thompson of the District of Minnesota announced on Dec. 18 that the amount of suspected fraud in Minnesota’s Medicaid program had reached over $9 billion.
