Alexander Suker, 42, was contracted with the city and county of Los Angeles to house and feed up to 600 homeless people, but was accused of misusing tens of millions of dollars to live a luxurious life. Exclusive Fox video shows the federal agents’ early-morning bust at the LA mansion. Suker was arrested, and his $125,000 Land Rover was seized by law enforcement. The feds say Suker defrauded the city and county of LA out of $23,000,000 for not only his mansion and car, but a second home in Greece, luxury vacations, designer clothes, and private schools. Speaker 1: He was living the high life while the people suffering, homeless on the streets with no shelter, no food. They're living out in the streets. People are literally dying, and this guy is out vacationing, buying homes, buying Range Rovers, and going shopping. Speaker 0: Prosecutors say Suker was supposed to provide three nutritional meals a day to the homeless, but during one inspection, Suker only had canned beans and ramen noodles on hand. The feds say Suker lied about various aspects of abundant blessings, including fake vendors, facilities and the homeless actually getting meals. The US Attorney's Office in LA says they are actively investigating at least 12 other similar fraud cases here in California. First Assistant US Attorney Bill Asele says there's a tremendous amount of fraud in this state and that today's bust of one man who misused $23,000,000 alone may show how little oversight there is. Speaker 1: California was pushing this money out quickly. A lot of money went out the door, with frankly very little vetting, very little checks and balances, and, he's one of the individuals that got it. Speaker 0: The suspect is scheduled to make his first appearance later today. He faces up to twenty years if convicted on a federal case. The local district attorney is also planning on prosecuting.

Two best friends had a lemonade stand in Rancho Cucamonga, but a man stole their money box. The girls felt bad for him and gave him a free lemonade, but he returned, flipped their stand, and took off with $30. The girls' brother and a passerby helped catch the thief, who was arrested for strong-arm robbery. The girls are unsure if they will sell lemonade again.

Hidden cameras captured LA Homeless Services Authority (LAHSA) employees throwing away taxpayer-funded food meant for the homeless. Boxes of food, including fresh sandwiches, apples, and water, were seen being discarded into the trash. This occurred repeatedly, almost daily, despite the food being in unopened packages labeled "eat good food." One person stated that with tens of thousands of homeless individuals in LA, the food was not being distributed. Another person claimed this was a theft of taxpayer dollars, as employees are paid to serve and care for the homeless, and are instead throwing away valuable food.

People are looting at 33rd and King Drive. A person with 4 boxes and another with 2 boxes are seen on camera. One woman is taking clothing.

A man with a gun stole watches from a group at a Williamsburg restaurant and another man's watch in Manhattan. At a Chinese restaurant in Williamsburg, two men held up the entire place with a gun. Police suspect newly arrived migrants are involved in these crimes, which are hard to track. Perpetrators with multiple arrests in the last 3 months may have entered the country at the same time.

Numerous arrests were made by the FBI, including city mayors, politicians, and religious leaders, in a large-scale operation targeting corruption. The authorities utilized buses due to the magnitude of the arrests. Prominent rabbis allegedly used religious charities to launder money. Over a decade, the operation uncovered international money laundering, corruption, and the illegal trade of human organs in the US, Switzerland, and Israel. Shockingly, one rabbi was involved in trafficking human kidneys for transplantation, profiting greatly from vulnerable individuals. The extent of corruption in New Jersey has angered residents, who had hoped for progress in reducing corruption. New Jersey has seen over 130 public officials convicted or pleading guilty to corruption.

Massive arrests were made by the FBI, involving city mayors, politicians, and religious leaders in New Jersey, highlighting a severe corruption issue ingrained in the state's political culture. Prominent rabbis allegedly used religious charities to launder money, with the operation revealing international money laundering and human organ trafficking in the US, Switzerland, and Israel. One rabbi reportedly dealt in human kidneys for a decade, exploiting vulnerable individuals for profit. The scale of corruption has outraged residents, who believed progress was being made in reducing corruption in Hudson County. Over the past decade, more than 130 public officials in New Jersey have pleaded guilty or been convicted of corruption.

A city built over a hundred tiny homes, each fitting a bed and a bit more, to house homeless people. However, drug dealers then stormed the area, leading to open-air drug dealing, increased crime, robberies, looting, and homeless camps. The tiny homes are allegedly not helping and are hurting the neighborhood. The owners of these tiny homes are charging $150 a night. The city pays this amount to a corporation for each homeless person to live there. Drug dealing is allegedly being done from the tiny homes. Nonprofits operating the tiny homes are paid by the city for everything they do and are making a lot of money.

Residents and business owners are concerned about losing their community due to rising crime. A former city councilman is requesting Governor Hochul send in the National Guard. Community members say organized crime has taken over, making it unsafe. Illegal activities occur in broad daylight, including near schools, with garbage and illegal vendors present. Police raids have been ineffective, with businesses reopening quickly. The mayor suggests the migrant influx contributes to the problem. Police report increased gang activity, with the Tren de Aragua gang from Venezuela establishing a presence in the U.S. They are allegedly involved in various crimes. Critics argue the surge in crime is due to lenient laws, such as the decriminalization of shoplifting. Open-air theft markets operate openly, and illegal food vendors and businesses contribute to a growing criminal economy. Residents demand intervention to eliminate the criminal element, as police efforts have been insufficient. The situation is described as a warning about the consequences of tolerating various crimes.

Neil Bonner and Saul Elisme for large scale SNAP benefit trafficking, a scheme that turned a program designed to feed families into a multimillion dollar criminal enterprise. Stat benefits are also known as food stamps. The defendants are charged with one count of food stamp fraud. As alleged in the charging documents, these men abused one of the government's most critical safety net programs for their own financial gain. This is a tack this is taxpayer money meant to keep people from going hungry. These defendants decided to take it for themselves. These defendants exchanged SNAP benefits for cash, which they pocketed. Bonner, a national a national naturalized US citizen from Haiti, owned the Jesuela variety store. Elise May, a lawful permanent resident also from Haiti, owned the Saul Massey Mixe store. These two businesses were colocated within a single storefront in Boston. To be certain, these were not supermarkets. They were not full service groceries. It would be a huge stretch to even call them convenience stores. In fact, the only thing convenient about these stores was how easy it was to commit SNAP benefit fraud. To put this in perspective, the Jasuela variety store is less than a 150 square feet in size, smaller than some bathrooms. The Sao Mache Mixe store was approximately 500 square feet in space. By contrast, a supermarket can be 20,000 to 60,000 square feet in size, have a dozen or more registers, and employ numerous employees. Both the Disuela variety and Sao Mache Mixe stores had one register, no carriages, no handbaskets, and very little food for sale. One legitimate supermarket in the same area as these stores redeems approximately $80,000 in SNAP benefits per month. Over the last twenty months, the Jesuela store was redeeming between three and six times that amount monthly with nowhere near the space, inventory, customers, or infrastructure to support it. The Sao Mache Mixe store redeemed over a $120,000 in SNAP benefits in the last six months. Simply put, there is no plausible way SNAP eligible food could have been purchased from these stores for this long. Yet these two stores are alleged to have illicitly trafficked nearly $7,000,000 in SNAP benefits. The fraud was shocking and glaring.

Police are noticing a trend of groups stealing merchandise, with suspects being in the country illegally. Two men stole $2,000 worth of items from Ulta. They were identified as Albert Terralba Jordan and Javier Gilarte Campos from Venezuela, both entering the US illegally. Detective Scott Pizik has seen at least 3 similar groups crossing the border illegally. Despite the border being far away, thefts are occurring locally. In June, a Peruvian national stole $17,000 from Kohl's and was deported in the fall.

I'm outside a court in New York where Mike Jeffries, the former CEO of the global fashion empire Abercrombie and Fitch, has just been charged with running an international sex trafficking and prostitution business along with his British partner, Matthew Smith, and their alleged fixer, James Jacobson. I've been investigating this story for three years now, speaking to young men who told me they pursued dreams of becoming fashion models only to find themselves becoming victims of sexual exploitation. It was my investigation that led to the FBI looking into this and was ultimately led to their arrests. Mike Jeffries, Matthew Smith, and James Jacobson deny any allegations of wrongdoing. If you want to hear about my investigation so far and what happens next, you can listen to my podcast, World of Secrets, The Abercrombie Guys.

A suspect stole a $350 water carbonating system from Gourmet Warehouse, prompting employees to chase him. Theft is rampant, with one employee recalling a man hiding a $1,000 fry pan in his pants. Stores like Karen McSherry's Specialty Cookware are overwhelmed by theft, with significant losses each week. Despite spending thousands on security, crime continues to escalate. Reporting thefts often feels futile, as offenders quickly disappear. A police spokesperson notes the importance of reporting crimes to track repeat offenders. A recent report revealed that 57% of small businesses in BC were affected by crime last year. McSherry urges the government to take action, warning that only big box stores will survive if the situation doesn't improve, leading to empty retail spaces across the province.

There is a discussion about immigration and its connection to criminal activity in New York City. The speaker mentions that while many immigrants are hardworking and looking for a better life, there is a small group involved in organized theft. This group operates on mopeds and scooters, stealing items like iPhones and clothing. The speaker highlights the criminal charges against them and the pattern of their activities. It is noted that these criminals travel to Florida to spend the stolen money before returning to New York. The speaker questions why they don't just stay in New York to commit crimes, to which the response is that they would end up in jail.

A store owner in Los Angeles describes wealthy individuals shoplifting, including one woman with a $5,000,000 house. The owner believes people steal because they see others doing it without consequences. To combat this, the store owner uses social media to identify shoplifters by posting footage and asking followers for help. The videos show individuals concealing merchandise and leaving without paying. One person stole over $1,000 worth of goods. When identified, shoplifters are asked to return or pay for the merchandise. While the owner finds this approach regrettable, it has significantly reduced shoplifting. The owner hopes public exposure will deter future theft.

A robbery crew of 20 individuals arrested for upwards of 50 robberies are all on the streets today. There are reports that they're operating out of the Roosevelt Hotel, which is now a migrant shelter. The activity inside the hotel is spilling into the Times Square area. There is a recruitment process occurring.

Gangs from South America are targeting multimillion dollar homes across the US, including Metro Detroit. These highly functional and well-trained criminals use jammers to disable Wi-Fi security systems, allowing them to break in undetected. Since September, around 30 to 40 homes in Detroit have been hit. The thieves swiftly steal cash, jewelry, and expensive handbags, often packing them into boxes for easy transport.

The报道 describes a sweeping FBI operation that led to a massive wave of arrests, including city mayors, politicians, and religious leaders, with authorities needing buses to manage the scale of the operation. The piece asserts that New Jersey has one of the worst corruption problems in the nation, noting that corruption is pervasive and has become ingrained in the state’s political culture. According to prosecutors, religious charities controlled by prominent rabbis were used to launder cash. The arrests were part of a ten-year operation that uncovered money laundering on an international scale, as well as the sale of human organs in the United States, Switzerland, and Israel. One rabbi is described as dealing in human kidneys for transplant for a decade, buying them from vulnerable people at a huge profit. The scale of the corruption across New Jersey has outraged residents, reinforcing the belief that Hudson County remains highly corrupt, despite perceptions of progress toward reducing corruption. The report notes that more than 130 public officials have pleaded guilty or been convicted of corruption in the last ten years in New Jersey.

A massive operation led to the arrest of politicians, religious leaders, and city mayors in the US. Buses were needed to handle the large number of arrests. New Jersey's corruption problem is considered one of the worst in the country, deeply ingrained in its political culture. Prominent rabbis allegedly used religious charities to launder money. The 10-year operation uncovered international money laundering, corruption, and the sale of human organs in the US, Switzerland, and Israel. Shockingly, one rabbi was involved in the illegal trade of human kidneys for a decade. The widespread corruption in New Jersey has angered residents. Over the past decade, more than 130 public officials in the state have been convicted or pleaded guilty to corruption charges.

A Harvard morgue manager named Cedric Lodge and his wife, along with two others, were involved in selling human body parts from donated bodies. They even opened a store specializing in creepy dolls, oddities, and bone art. One buyer, Pauley, would visit the Harvard Medical School morgue to handpick the bodies he wanted to purchase. The stolen remains were sold to oddity shops, including one run by Katrina McClain, who was already under FBI investigation. She would choose specific remains from the morgue and sell them at flea markets. This shocking story reveals the unethical sourcing of human remains, with no regard for the individuals who donated their bodies to science.

People were collecting food and clothes. Speaker 1 mentioned thinking about the 10-year-old people. Speaker 0 shared a story about a man who came up and wanted food. Everyone gathered around him, hugged him, and gave him a lot of food and other things. They had planned to keep some stoves to cook for everyone, but they decided to give them up because they thought it would make things better. Overall, the situation was sad.

A man in Atlanta saw a body part hanging out of a U-Haul while driving and called the police. The police found kids in the back of the U-Haul, leading to a case of human trafficking.

It's morning on March 15, and investigators are chasing a tip about a man leaving the country with a carry-on bag packed with a million dollars in cash. The claim is that he just cleared security with the cash, and that these cloak-and-dagger transfers happen almost weekly at MSP International. The money is reported to be headed to the Middle East, Dubai, and beyond, with sources saying last year more than $100,000,000 in cash left MSP in carry-on luggage. The reporters highlight Glenn Kearns as the national go-to expert on money transfers behind these mysterious movements. Kearns is a former Seattle police detective who spent fifteen years on the FBI's Joint Terrorism Task Force. He tracked millions of dollars in cash leaving flights from Seattle and found that the money came from hawalas—informal money-transfer networks used to send funds to countries with limited or no official banking systems. Some immigrant communities rely on hawalas to send money to relatives back home. Kearns discovered that some of the money was funneled to a hawala network in a region of Somalia controlled by the Al Shabaab terrorist group. The investigation raises a question: how could such large sums be transferred back home? The reporting notes that sources say the phenomenon is connected to welfare fraud and day care, suggesting a broader pattern behind the carry-on cash. To understand the link between day care fraud and the surge in carry-on cash, the reporters trace the crime's history in Minnesota. Five years earlier, Fox 9 investigators first reported that day care fraud was rising in the state. They exposed how some businesses exploited the system to steal millions in government subsidies intended to help low-income families with childcare expenses. The daycare fraud scheme works by centers signing up low-income families that qualify for childcare assistance funding. Surveillance videos from a case prosecuted by Hennepin County show parents checking their kids into a center and then leaving moments later, or sometimes with no children at all. Regardless, the center would bill the state for a full day of childcare. In summary, the report ties large cash transfers at MSP to hawalas and potential ties to terrorism financing, while framing a separate but connected pattern of crime: daycare centers billing for subsidized childcare in ways that enable significant fraud, thereby facilitating the movement and laundering of funds.
