Abdirashid Ismail Said was the centerpiece of Attorney General Keith X. Ellison’s attempt to pretend that he was also being tough on Somali fraud.
Since Said had already been convicted of Medicaid fraud in 2022, he should never have been allowed to bill Medicaid for anything. And once he was charged, he should never have been released on bail.
But he was and did and now he’s on the run, and we’re all supposed to pretend that Ellison tried really hard and just couldn’t figure things out.
The Minnesota Attorney General announced in December 2023 that Said is responsible for the largest-ever Medicaid fraud case charged by the Minnesota Medicaid Fraud Control Unit.
Said is accused of racketeering, perjury and several counts of aiding and abetting theft by swindle.
Investigators say Said defrauded the state’s Medicaid program through his operation of three Medicaid-funded home health care agencies: Faym Health, Prestige Health and Minnesota Home Health Care.
Two others involved in the alleged scheme, Ali Abdirizak Ahmed and Said Awil Ibrahim, were each charged with racketeering and aiding and abetting theft by swindle.

Authorities are searching for a man accused of being the “principal actor” in a Medicaid fraud scheme that defrauded Minnesota taxpayers out of nearly $11 million after he failed to appear in court.
Why would a man who had a family in Kenya (many Somali refugee camps are based there) ever have gotten bail at all? Same reason he was able to keep on charging Medicaid.
The Minnesota Attorney General announced in December 2023 that Said is responsible for the largest-ever Medicaid fraud case charged by the Minnesota Medicaid Fraud Control Unit.
And why would the MN AG Ellison take so long to act? Can't bite the hand that feeds you ...

Send in the Dawg
Has a “Wanted Dead or Alive” poster offering a reward been put out yet?!?
Boy, this is convenient. Now he’s not around to cut a deal by informing on who he may have given a chunk of the money to.
I think we have some military y near by. Pick him up.
Well sure he's a criminal, but it was the Democrats who set him up in business.
Walz even bought him the ticket.
==============================================
Looks like Somali thieves have the Minn govt at its disposal.

Thieving Somali Abdirashid Said is charged with 10 felonies from his $11M Medicaid theft, including perjury. He donated $1,000 to Ilhan Omar’s first campaign for the state House of Representatives. He gave the maximum amount, $1,000, to her campaign on 11/18/2015.
“...Now you see him, now he’s back in Somalia....”
Yeah, with millions of our hard-earned tax dollars that they want us to keep account of right down to the penny.
ALL brought to America by the Communist Party USA!! Oh, and be sure to thank em when ya see em, especially at the voting booth. Spit.
Appears to me there has been a trillion dollars stolen from tax payers in the US since Birdbrain Biden assumed the throne and we will be lucky if even 10 percent of that is recovered and the perpetrators brought to justice.
Wait. Are you saying that the demonRAT party is the longest running, most nefarious ongoing criminal enterprise in all of recorded history? NOOOOO! SAY IT ISN'T SOOOO!
(False suprise=off)
MN Asst AG: "No, I thought YOU were going to get him to surrender his passport."
Both: "Oopsie! Ha, ha, ha. Oh well. Maybe next time."
Keith Ellison finally prosecutes a major fraud case and lets the guy keep his passport so he can flee the country.
The money was already sent to Somalia so he can now live like a King thanks to US taxpayers.
Smells like an inside job.
