which contains monthly allocated funds that can be used at authorized
stores.

Inspectors began investigating the Stryker Avenue Market in 2008. It was
discovered that on several occasions, Ansari allegedly exchanged food stamps
for cash and ineligible items. One count in the indictment alleges that on
July 16, 2008, Ansari swiped a food stamps card for $401, and gave the
person back $200 in cash.

Court documents also listed that between 2004 and 2009, the average food

Stryker's redemptions during that time period came out to about $3.1
