SECOND AMENDED ORDER SETTING TRIALS
On February 21, 2025 this Court issued an amended order scheduling trial for the
remaining defendants it this “Feeding Our Future” financial fraud scheme. The Court is
reviewing these cases monthly to keep the cases moving and on track for trial. Due to
the number of cases and defendants left to try, other criminal trials scheduled before the
Court, cases and defendants that no longer require a trial and anticipated length of the
remaining trials, this Order resets date‐certain trials, with the amended trial dates stated
below.
The Court HEREBY ORDERS the following trial schedule. The parties and
attorneys involved in each case are to be prepared and available for trial on these dates.
1. United States v. Aimee Bock, et al. (22‐cr‐223): February 3, 2025 through September
5, 2025. Based on the size of the courtroom and other logistical considerations, the
Court cannot try all 12 defendants in this case together. The Court has grouped the
defendants as follows:

Omar (12) Ahmed Abdullahi Ghedi (13), and Abdirahman Mohamud Ahmed
(14)2.
The dates listed above are date certain; however, if a prior trial runs long, then the
start date could be moved slightly. While the Court intends to take a break between
each block of defendants in this this case, the Court will be trying other criminal cases
in‐between. To keep the trial moving, the Court generally will hold trial on Fridays,
but will assess this plan during trial. The Court will issue an amended trial notices to
adjust the Defendants now scheduled in each trial block if needed.

6. United States v. Hibbo Salah Daar (25‐cr‐214): To be determined after pretrial

7. United States v. Dorothy Jean Moor (25‐226): To be determined after pretrial
motions have been completed.
The above‐referenced cases are all related as part of a larger “Feeding our Future”
alleged financial fraud scheme, under which the government have charged 72 defendants
to date. Early on, these cases were designated as complex for purposes of the Speedy Trial
Act pursuant to 18 U.S.C. §§ 316(h)(7)(B)(ii), based on the large volume of discovery, the
nature of the evidence collected, and the sheer number of defendants6. In some cases, the
Court has granted multiple requests from the parties to continue motion hearings,
continue trials, or for additional briefing.
Based on the complexity of the cases, the nature of the cases as related, the timing of
when the cases are official trial read, to give adequate time for counsel to prepare and to
ensure continuity of counsel, especially those that represent multiple defendants, the
Court finds that the ends of justice served by the granting of these continuances outweigh
the best interest of the public and the Defendants in a speedy trial. The Court thus
continues to exclude the speedy trial time from the date of this order, until each trial date

The new cases 25-CR-214 and 25-CR-226 have pending motions to designate the case as complex.
