# Khadar Jigre Adan *Lakeville resident federally charged in the Feeding Our Future case announced September 20, 2022* Khadar Jigre Adan, of [[Lakeville]], [[Minnesota]], is one of 47 defendants the United States Department of Justice announced on September 20, 2022 as federally charged in the [[Feeding Our Future]] case. The Department's release describes the case as a $250 million matter.[^1] The charges were allegations as of that date.[^1] Adan is one of seven of the 47 who gave addresses in Dakota County.[^2] The project's at-issue catalogue holds one entry that names him, AI-Dakota-042. That entry places those seven federal defendants beside its own statement that the Dakota County attorney's office charged none of them.[^3] The record compiled for this article does not establish the present status of the charges against Adan. It carries no plea, conviction, sentence, dismissal or other disposition in his name.[^1] ## Who The Department of Justice's September 20, 2022 announcement lists Khadar Jigre Adan among the defendants charged that day, with a Lakeville address.[^2] He is named only in his capacity as a defendant in that filed federal matter.[^1] ## What The charges were federal. The project's validated claims matrix lists the September 20, 2022 action as an indictment, recording that its allegations stood as of that date and that many of the defendants have since been convicted.[^1] The matrix records no conviction or sentence for Adan.[^1] ## When - **September 20, 2022**: the Department of Justice announces charges against 47 defendants, Adan among them.[^1] - **June 6, 2025**: the U.S. Attorney's Office for the District of Minnesota announces charges against [[Dorothy Jean Moore]] of [[Apple Valley]], whom the project's matrix records as the case's 72nd defendant.[^4] - **May 22, 2026**: the Department announces that [[Aimee Bock]] of Apple Valley, one of the seven Dakota County defendants charged in 2022, was sentenced to 500 months.[^5] - **July 16, 2026**: the Department announces the transfer of [[Abdikerm Abdelahi Eidleh]] of [[Burnsville]] from Somalia to Minnesota to face charges. The project's matrix records 31 charges against him, which remain allegations.[^6] - **August 26, 2026**: Fox 9 reported that [[Abdihakim Ali Ahmed]] of Apple Valley was sentenced to 54 months.[^7] ## Where Adan's listed address is in Lakeville, in Dakota County.[^2] The other six defendants with Dakota County addresses in the 2022 announcement were: - Aimee Bock and Abdihakim Ali Ahmed of Apple Valley - Abdikerm Abdelahi Eidleh of Burnsville - [[Bekam Addissu Merdassa]] of Inver Grove Heights - [[Asha Jama]] of Lakeville - [[Fartun Jama]] of [[Rosemount]][^2] ## How many Seven of the 47 defendants charged on September 20, 2022 gave Dakota County addresses, or 14.9 percent. The at-issue entry rounds this to "Fifteen percent of the initial defendant pool".[^2][^3] The case's defendant count grew after the initial announcement. As of June 6, 2025, the project's matrix records Moore as the 72nd defendant.[^4] ## In the at-issue record Entry AI-Dakota-042 appears in the section *III. The Fraud Ledger — Dakota County Addresses* of the project's Dakota claims matrix, dated September 2, 2026. It sets two items side by side: - the seven defendants with Dakota County addresses among the 47 federally charged on September 20, 2022;[^2] - the entry's statement that the Dakota County [[county attorney]]'s office charged none of them.[^3] The entry is anchored to the White House presidential action *Establishing the Task Force to Eliminate Fraud* (March 2026).[^3] The record shows that the charges against Adan and the other six were brought federally.[^1] The record compiled here does not include Dakota County charging data or a statement from the county attorney's office. It therefore does not independently establish the entry's statement about county charging, which rests on the catalogue entry itself.[^3] ## Notes [^1]: U.S. Department of Justice, Office of Public Affairs, *U.S. Attorney Announces Federal Charges Against 47 Defendants in $250 Million Feeding Our Future Case* (Sept. 20, 2022) — announces federal charges against 47 defendants, including Adan, in a $250 million matter; allegations as of that date. https://www.justice.gov/archives/opa/pr/us-attorney-announces-federal-charges-against-47-defendants-250-million-feeding-our-future [^2]: U.S. Department of Justice, Office of Public Affairs, *U.S. Attorney Announces Federal Charges Against 47 Defendants in $250 Million Feeding Our Future Case* (Sept. 20, 2022) — Dakota County addresses among the 47: Bock and Ahmed (Apple Valley), Eidleh (Burnsville), Merdassa (Inver Grove Heights), Adan and Asha Jama (Lakeville), Fartun Jama (Rosemount). https://www.justice.gov/archives/opa/pr/us-attorney-announces-federal-charges-against-47-defendants-250-million-feeding-our-future [^3]: The White House, *Establishing the Task Force to Eliminate Fraud* (Mar. 2026) — the presidential action to which at-issue entry AI-Dakota-042 is anchored; the entry's statement that the county attorney's office charged none of the seven is the catalogue's own. https://www.whitehouse.gov/presidential-actions/2026/03/establishing-the-task-force-to-eliminate-fraud/ [^4]: U.S. Attorney's Office, District of Minnesota, *Apple Valley Woman Charged for Participating in $250 Million Feeding Our Future Fraud Scheme* (June 6, 2025) — charges against Dorothy Jean Moore, recorded in the project's matrix as the 72nd defendant; allegations. https://www.justice.gov/usao-mn/pr/apple-valley-woman-charged-participating-250-million-feeding-our-future-fraud-scheme [^5]: U.S. Department of Justice, Office of Public Affairs, *Feeding Our Future Ringleader Sentenced to 500 Months* (May 22, 2026) — conviction and 500-month sentence of Aimee Bock. https://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/feeding-our-future-ringleader-sentenced-500-months [^6]: U.S. Department of Justice, Office of Public Affairs, *Successful Transfer of Abdikerm Eidleh from Somalia to Minnesota to Face Charges for Role in Feeding Our Future* (July 16, 2026) — transfer of Eidleh to face charges, recorded in the matrix as 31 charges; allegations. https://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/successful-transfer-abdikerm-eidleh-somalia-minnesota-face-charges-role-feeding-our-future [^7]: Fox 9, *Feeding Our Future fraudster heading to prison, turning child nutrition funds into personal business* (Aug. 26, 2026) — reports the 54-month sentence of Abdihakim Ali Ahmed. https://www.fox9.com/news/feeding-our-future-fraudster-heading-prison-turning-child-nutrition-funds-personal-business
