The owner of a Virginia-based nonprofit called JOBS Community Development Corporation has been convicted of defrauding the USDA’s Summer Food Service Program. In order to obtain over $800,000 in federal funds, Shaun Brown allegedly falsified reimbursement claims and supporting documents to show grossly inflated numbers for meals served to low income children by her nonprofit. Furthermore, with federal funds, she allegedly ordered quantities of food that was so far in excess that she had to know it could never be used. Instead, her employees were directed to dump the food on a pig farm and behind buildings around town. For theft of government funds and other fraud charges, she faces a maximum sentence of 20 years in prison. USAO EDVA
