#4 I am reminded of a case from the very rural central valley of California in the mid-1990's, involving a gas station/convenience store, owned by Middle Eastern immigrants, that had a low six-figure monthly Food Stamp reimbursement cash flow. Then CalDOJ Bureau of Narcotics agents were involved in the investigation and take-down. They reported that the actual foodstuffs and merchandise was mostly out of date, mostly convenince snack foods, and shelf stockage behind the retail floor was small and virtually empty of basic family diet menu items.

The going rate for food stamp fraud varied between 50-60 cents on the dollar for food stamp charges, returned as cash to the indigent for non-existent "food". The connection to local, family related drug dealers was so apparent, they shared banking locations and addresses.
