Abdinajib Yussuf, 27, pleaded guilty to wire fraud in a $6 million Medicaid fraud scheme involving Star Autism Center in St.
Cloud, Minnesota.
He admitted to submitting false claims for autism services never provided, using unqualified staff and paying parents cash kickbacks.
The center, which he founded at 22, targeted children from the Somali community, sometimes aiding in false diagnoses.
Yussuf used over $100,000 to buy a truck and sent more than $200,000 to Kenya.
The case is part of a broader federal investigation into Minnesota’s autism services fraud, which has prompted a $259 million federal funding freeze and scrutiny of over 500 unlicensed centers.
