  • Farhad “Fred” Monem: Bribes, Rotten Food & the Fugitive Shepherd

    Farhad “Fred” Monem: Bribes, Rotten Food & the Fugitive Shepherd
    2026/07/06
    A trusted state official. Millions in taxpayer dollars. And a corruption scandal so bizarre it allegedly ended with the accused hiding out as a shepherd in Iran.

    In this episode of Fugitive Files, we uncover the case of Farhad “Fred” Monem, the former Oregon Department of Corrections administrator accused of orchestrating a years-long bribery scheme that corrupted the state's prison food system. According to federal investigators, Monem accepted more than $1.2 million in kickbacks from food brokers in exchange for steering lucrative government contracts their way. Prosecutors allege the arrangement allowed vendors to profit while inmates were served spoiled, substandard, and sometimes unsafe food, all at the expense of Oregon taxpayers.

    As the investigation closed in, Monem allegedly vanished before he could be brought to justice. While his wife and several co-conspirators were convicted and sent to prison, authorities say Monem fled to his native Iran, where he has remained beyond the reach of U.S. law enforcement. The FBI and IRS have spent years trying to track him down, turning him into one of the more unusual white-collar fugitives on America's wanted lists.

    In this episode, we break down the bribery scheme, the millions that allegedly changed hands behind closed doors, the impact on Oregon's prison system, and the extraordinary story of a fugitive accused of trading a government office for life on the run.

    Some monsters don’t hide in the shadows — they hide in plain sight.

  • Rashawd Lamar Tulloch: Craigslist Scams, Crypto Laundering & a Global Fraud Empire

    Rashawd Lamar Tulloch: Craigslist Scams, Crypto Laundering & a Global Fraud Empire
    2026/06/29
    A bargain that never arrives. A wire transfer that disappears. And an international crime ring that allegedly turned online shopping into a multi-million-dollar scam.

    In this episode of Fugitive Files, we uncover the case of Rashawd Lamar Tulloch, one of the individuals accused of helping launder money for a sprawling criminal network that allegedly defrauded thousands of Americans through fake online listings.

    According to federal prosecutors, the organization flooded websites like Craigslist and eBay with advertisements for vehicles, equipment, and other high-value items that didn't actually exist. Victims were convinced to send payments through wire transfers and prepaid cards, only to discover they had purchased nothing at all. Investigators say the stolen funds were funneled through a sophisticated laundering operation involving cryptocurrency, allowing millions of dollars to move from American victims to overseas conspirators. What began as isolated fraud complaints eventually exposed an international organized crime enterprise stretching from small-town America to Romania. The investigation led to sweeping federal indictments, multiple extraditions, and one of the largest online fraud crackdowns in recent years.

    In this episode, we break down the scam, the crypto money trail, the global law enforcement operation, and how an online marketplace fraud scheme evolved into a transnational criminal empire.

  • Elaine Escoe: Fake Businesses, COVID Cash & a $35 Million Jackpot

    Elaine Escoe: Fake Businesses, COVID Cash & a $35 Million Jackpot
    2026/06/22
    A global pandemic. Emergency relief funds. And a fraud scheme that prosecutors say turned government aid into a multi-million-dollar payday.

    In this episode of Fugitive Files, we examine the case of Elaine Escoe, one of six defendants accused of participating in a massive COVID-relief fraud conspiracy that allegedly targeted programs created to help struggling businesses survive the pandemic. According to federal prosecutors, the group submitted dozens of fraudulent applications seeking nearly $35 million in taxpayer-funded assistance through programs such as the Paycheck Protection Program and the Restaurant Revitalization Fund. Investigators allege that fake payroll records, inflated employee counts, and fabricated tax documents were used to convince the government that shell companies were legitimate businesses in need of help.

    Authorities say that once the money began flowing, the defendants allegedly moved funds through various accounts and businesses in an effort to conceal the source of the proceeds and disguise the scale of the operation. What was intended to be a lifeline for struggling entrepreneurs instead became, according to prosecutors, a blueprint for one of the most ambitious pandemic fraud schemes uncovered by federal investigators.

    In this episode, we break down the allegations, the paper trail, the billions of dollars distributed during the COVID era, and how emergency relief programs became a target for fraudsters chasing an unprecedented financial windfall.
