MINNEAPOLIS, Minnesota (HOL) — Mukhtar Mohamed Shariff, a central figure in the largest COVID-19 pandemic fraud scheme in U.S. history, was sentenced to 17 and a half years in prison on Friday, one of the harshest sentences in the case so far. The $250 million Feeding Our Future fraud siphoned funds meant to feed underprivileged children, instead channelling them toward luxury cars, properties, and overseas investments.
