# Dorothy Jean Moore *Apple Valley, Minnesota, resident charged in the federal Feeding Our Future prosecution* **Dorothy Jean Moore** is a resident of [[Apple Valley]], [[Minnesota]], who was charged in the federal [[Feeding Our Future]] prosecution in the District of Minnesota. The U.S. Attorney's Office for the District of Minnesota announced the charges against her on June 6, 2025, when she was 57. As of that date she was the 72nd defendant charged in the matter.[^1] The charges are three counts of wire fraud and two counts of money laundering. They relate to two Feeding Our Future sites run out of community churches. Each site was certified on signed forms as serving 1,500 meals a day to children.[^1] The project's Dakota County at-issue record carries the entry and sets it beside a March 2025 presidential action on waste, fraud and abuse.[^2] The charges are allegations. The record in the pack does not establish guilt, a plea, a trial outcome or a sentence for Moore.[^1] ## Who The U.S. Attorney's Office release identifies Moore as a 57-year-old resident of Apple Valley.[^1] She is named in the record only as a defendant in a filed federal case, and the charges are the complaint's allegations.[^1] ## What The charges announced on June 6, 2025 are three counts of wire fraud and two counts of money laundering.[^1] They concern two Feeding Our Future sites operated out of community churches. Each site was certified on signed forms as serving 1,500 meals a day to children.[^1] The broader matter began with federal charges against 47 defendants, announced on September 20, 2022. The Department of Justice put the alleged losses at $250 million.[^3] Those were allegations as of that date, and many of the defendants have since been convicted.[^3] ## When - **September 20, 2022**: The Department of Justice announced federal charges against 47 defendants in the $250 million Feeding Our Future matter.[^3] - **June 6, 2025**: The U.S. Attorney's Office for the District of Minnesota announced charges against Moore as the 72nd defendant.[^1] - **May 22, 2026**: [[Aimee Bock]] of Apple Valley, described by the Department of Justice as the matter's ringleader, was sentenced to 500 months.[^4] - **August 26, 2026**: Fox 9 reported that [[Abdihakim Ali Ahmed]] of Apple Valley, another defendant in the matter, was sentenced to 54 months.[^5] The Bock and Ahmed outcomes concern other defendants. They are not attributed to Moore.[^4] ## Where The charged conduct concerns two sites in Apple Valley, in Dakota County, run out of community churches.[^1] The case is in federal court in the District of Minnesota.[^1] ## How many - **72**: Moore's position in the count of defendants charged in the Feeding Our Future matter, as of June 6, 2025.[^1] - **47**: Defendants charged as of the September 20, 2022 announcement.[^3] - **5**: Counts against Moore, made up of three counts of wire fraud and two of money laundering.[^1] - **2 and 1,500**: Two sites, each certified on signed forms at 1,500 meals a day. Together that is a certified 3,000 meals a day.[^1] - **$250 million**: The Department of Justice's figure for the Feeding Our Future matter as a whole.[^3] ## In the at-issue record The project's Dakota County package lists Moore's charges as entry AI-Dakota-045, filed under Dakota County addresses. The entry rests on a single court source from justice.gov.[^1] The project pairs the entry with a White House presidential action of March 2025, *Stopping Waste, Fraud, and Abuse by Eliminating Information Silos*.[^2] The basis the project gives for the pairing is that the record documents a signature standing in for a count as the verification method.[^2] The documented output on the Minnesota side is the certification of two church sites on signed forms at 1,500 meals a day each.[^1] The entry states that the charges are allegations. It also asserts that the forms were paid. The pack carries no payment amount or payment record for the two sites, so that assertion is not adopted here.[^1] ## Notes [^1]: U.S. Attorney's Office, District of Minnesota, *Release announcing charges against Dorothy Jean Moore in the Feeding Our Future matter* (June 6, 2025).
