John Bowne reported on the $250 million "Feeding Our Future" pandemic fraud scheme in Minneapolis, which led to the indictment of several associates of Mayor Jacob Frey. Appointees such as Abdi Nur Salah and Shamarke Issa pleaded guilty to wire fraud, while others were implicated in a $120,000 jury tampering attempt. Critics questioned the proximity of the Mayor's inner circle to the scammers and the lack of earlier intervention by state agencies.
