Just confirmed the legislative auditor has initiated an audit of the $100 million Minnesota Promise grant program. It's scheduled to be completed this fall.

Jefferson's associate, Lester Brown, also pled guilty. Both admitted to traveling here to submit fake claims and find more clients to bill even more. They said they used chatGPT to fake client notes and inflate numbers.

There's been a lot of noise the last few days calling out local journalists for not exposing the fraud in Minnesota. The truth is, we have. Other local reporters have, too. This part may sound crazy: our stories come with evidence, fact-checks, and balance. (1/2)

@A_TwiceKSTP Congrats, Alec!
