A federal grand jury in Nebraska has indicted Paul Rosberg, 61, and Kelly Rosberg, 44, on six counts stemming from the sale of misbranded and/or non-inspected meat and meat products to Omaha Public Schools. The couple are from Wausa, NE. If convicted, each could be sentenced to 3 to 5 years in federal prison, and fined from $10,000 to $250,000 on each of the six counts along with requirements that any release be supervised and fees paid. Count one charges the pair with conspiracy with the intent to defraud. The second count charges Kelly Rosberg with selling 2,600 pounds of ground beef that was labeled as inspected by the USDA when it was not. Count three charges both of the accused with selling on or about Sept. 19, 2011 ground beef that was not inspected by USDA. In other words, the indictment is for both the mislabeling ground beef as inspected when it was not and for actually selling beef outside the required USDA inspection. The fourth count against both men is for representing the 2,600 pounds of beet was USDA inspected, Counts five and six are against Paul Rosberg for making a false statements on or about Nov. 3, 2011 to USDA’s Food Safety and Inspection Service. Deborah Gilg, U.S. District Attorney for Nebraska, announced the indictments. The pair were caught by a joint investigation of USDA’s Office of Program Evaluation, Enforcement and Review (OPEER) and the Inspector General (IG). Information development by investigators led to the issuance of a search warrant for Nebraska’s Finest Meats, which led to the confiscation of records, labels, equipment and other evidence in the case. Nebraska’s Finest Meats has suspended operations. Omaha Public Schools, with about 50,000 K-12 students, are Nebraska’s largest.
