 1. Large-Scale Individual Fraud Example A Los Angeles contractor, Alexander Suker, is accused of stealing $23 million intended to feed and house homeless individuals.Funds were allegedly used for luxury homes, cars, vacations, designer goods, and private schools, instead of homeless services. 2. Failure to Deliver Promised Services Suker was contracted to provide three meals per day to up to 600 homeless people.Inspections reportedly found only canned beans and ramen noodles, contradicting billing claims.Prosecutors allege the use of fake vendors, falsified facilities, and false service records. 3. Broader Pattern of Fraud in California Federal authorities indicate at least 12 additional similar cases under investigation.A U.S. Attorney stated that large sums were pushed out quickly with minimal vetting or checks and balances. 4. Comparison to Other State Scandals Investigators and commentators compare California’s situation to Minnesota’s Feeding Our Future fraud, claiming California’s fraud may be larger in scale.Independent investigator Nick Shirley claims billions of dollars may be involved statewide. 5.
