A woman with autism in Minnesota finds herself homeless after sheriff’s deputies dragged her from her apartment, even though she kept up with every rent payment. Her caregiver provider, meanwhile, raked in $12,630 a month from taxpayers for services she says barely materialized. This heartbreaking case rips open wounds in the state’s bloated social services system, where oversight lags far behind the cash flow.
Residents like her relied on programs meant to foster independence, only to watch providers pocket subsidies without delivering. Public fury builds as details emerge of lavish lifestyles funded by public dollars. Questions swirl about how such exploitation thrives unchecked.
The Shocking Eviction of Sky Hansen
Janelle Hansen, known as Sky, lived quietly in her Minnetonka apartment until June 2025, when deputies showed up with an eviction notice labeling her Jane Doe. She waved her lease in confusion, insisting she had paid rent faithfully to her provider, American Home Health Care LLC. Deputies escorted her out with just her essentials, leaving her to fend for herself on the streets. Eight months later, Sky bounces between cars, tents, shelters, and motels, battling cold nights and unsafe encounters. Neighbors recall her as self-sufficient despite autism, managing daily life on her own. Her eviction record now haunts housing searches, turning a stable life into endless instability.
American Home Health Care’s Questionable Billings
Owned by Jama Mohamod, the company subleased apartments to clients like Sky while billing Medicaid $421 daily for about 12 hours of support services. That adds up to roughly $12,630 monthly per client, yet Sky reports receiving only one or two hours most days. State records show the firm collected over $2.2 million in public funds since 2022. Neighbor Cain Pence faced even starker neglect, billed $276 daily for eight hours of care that never came, with timestamped photos proving he was out of state on billed dates. A Department of Human Services inspection confirmed fraudulent claims, including services logged when clients were absent. Mohamod runs operations from a Maple Grove mansion boasting an indoor basketball court, drawing scrutiny over kickback schemes like rent rebates offset by inflated billings.
Cracks in Minnesota’s Integrated Community Supports Program
The Integrated Community Supports initiative, designed for disabled adults to live independently, exploded from $4.6 million in 2021 to nearly $180 million by 2025. Providers dominate this space, often billing for round-the-clock aid that residents say vanishes. Whistleblowers describe patterns of neglect across apartment complexes, where tenants get housing but zero services. One client, Rick Cleur, died unattended from a medical emergency despite daily billing for 12 hours of care. Legislative hearings revealed dozens displaced to shelters or worse, with advocates supporting over 30 cases recently. Lax self-reported data fuels the fire, eroding trust in a system meant to protect the vulnerable.
State Probes and Lingering Gaps
Minnesota’s Department of Human Services issued a correction order in August 2025 verifying billing fraud, suspending payments to American Home Health Care by September. Inspector General James Clark testified in January that calls flood in from clients and families about missing services in these settings. Governor Tim Walz’s team promises reforms like site visits and audits, but critics note past scandals yielded little change. Federal prosecutors’ resignations have stalled charges, leaving cases in limbo amid DOJ turmoil. Bipartisan lawmakers push for tighter licensing and tenant safeguards. Disability rights groups warn abuses scare off those who need help most.
Final Thought
This saga exposes how profit can trump compassion in welfare programs, leaving lives in ruins while billions vanish. Taxpayers deserve answers on the full scope. What reforms would you demand to fix this mess? Share in the comments.
