🚨WATCH: 'What we found was deeply concerning'
Scott Dexter, a former Minnesota Department of Human Services investigator, testified to Congress that he spent nearly three decades conducting criminal and financial fraud investigations, including in the state’s Child Care Assistance Program before political pressure and bureaucratic hurdles brought meaningful investigations to a halt.
After joining DHS in 2013 as part of a newly formed fraud unit, Dexter said his team focused on data-driven cases.
“Our cases were not selected based on the name of the center, the owner, or the community it served,” Dexter told lawmakers. “They were selected based solely on tips, complaints, and the amount of CCAP funding being paid out.”
Dexter said that what investigators found raised serious red flags.
“Many of these centers operated out of commercial spaces with windows totally covered, no visible play areas, and very few children ever present,” Dexter said.
He said investigators documented “patterns of overbilling, nonexistent attendance, and in some cases, children being signed in for hours they were never actually at the center.”
"As our investigations progressed, we noticed a trend: many of the centers receiving the highest levels of CCAP funding were owned and operated by Somali individuals, and the families served were predominantly Somali. This was not the basis for selecting cases, but it did become the basis for accusations against us," he said.
Despite mounting evidence, Dexter said oversight tightened — not on fraudsters, but on investigators.
“We were labeled as racially biased,” he testified.
Eventually, Dexter said, investigations became nearly impossible.
"An outside review was launched into our investigative practices. We were questioned about how we selected centers and how we conducted surveillance. Following that review, new restrictions were placed on our work," he said.
“In 2019, I chose to retire because the investigative process had become so constrained that meaningful work was no longer possible.”

So they got away with the corruption. Pretty sure that’s a microcosm of what’s going on around the entire country in red and blue states.
Uncovering staggering levels of fraud from the black community means one of two things ...
Worked on fraud for 3 decades - joined MN DHS in 2013 and retired in 2019???
Don’t doubt his work and others were stymied by politics but this doesn’t add up...
Why didn’t he go to the news and reveal it? Apparently he was near retirement age anyway so why not??
Maybe because false charges of racism will ruin a life .Democrats,criminal and lazy blacks, and liberals know that simply screaming racist diverts all attention from the actual wrongdoing.
Who is dumb enough to spend three decades of their life in fruitless work without seeking a more productive option?
“””Why didn’t he go to the news and reveal it? Apparently he was near retirement age anyway so why not??”””
Because the “news” won’t cover anything that hurts democrats here. Those of us in Minneapolistan have known about the skinny fraud forever. Any mention of it and you are a racist.

But did the chilruns

at these Democrat Centers?

That was decades ago.
His experience validates your experience.
Why isn’t this all over the MSM?
Well, testifying to CONgress will get results! /s
“””A college friend of mine got a journalism degree and worked his way up to the Minneapolis market. “””
That was his mistake. He got a journalism degree. To work in the “news” these days you need a masters degree in propaganda.
Why don't pigs fly?
His experience was a key to my understanding of how corrupt the Media had become.

Before political pressure and bureaucratic hurdles brought meaningful investigations to a halt.
Democrats know they only need one thing for their agenda to work CONTROL power and money emsues.
I’d say 2/3 of Congress, for a start.
Will such charges hold up in a court in the state in which it occurs?
The answer is "NO!"
That depends upon what you call "fruitless." From what I can tell a great many of those scumbags walk off with a bucket-load of cash and other goodies. One wouldn't call that "fruitless" if such was their original objective.
