Felicity Huffman and Lori Loughlin among those charged in nationwide college admissions cheating scam

Hollywood actors, including Felicity Huffman and Lori Loughlin, and a slew of chief executives are among 50 people charged in a nationwide college admissions cheating scam, according to court records unsealed in Boston Tuesday.

Those indicted allegedly paid bribes of up to $6 million to get their children into elite colleges, including Yale, Stanford, Georgetown and the University of Southern California, federal prosecutors said.

"Beginning in or about 2011, and continuing through the present, the defendants -- principally individuals whose high-school age children were applying to college -- conspired with others to use bribery and other forms of fraud to facilitate their children's admission to colleges and universities in the District of Massachusetts and elsewhere, including Yale University, Stanford University, the University of Texas, the University of Southern California, and the University of Southern California -- Los Angeles," the indictment said.

In most cases the students did not know their admission was contingent on a bribe, officials said.

The 200 pages of charging documents in the case were unsealed in Boston federal court.

According to the charging papers, Huffman "made a purported charitable contribution of $15,000 ... to participate in the college entrance exam cheating scheme on behalf of her eldest daughter."

"Huffman later made arrangements to pursue the scheme a second time, for her younger daughter, before deciding not to do so," the documents allege.

Federal agents secretly recorded telephone calls with Huffman and a cooperating witness, according to the court papers.

The documents say actress Lori Loughlin -- best known for her role as Aunt Becky on the ABC sitcom "Full House" -- and her husband, fashion designer Mossimo Giannulli, "agreed to pay bribes totaling $500,000 in exchange for having their two daughters designated as recruits to the USC crew team -- despite the fact that they did not participate in crew -- thereby facilitating their admission to USC."

Federal agents obtained emails from Loughlin implicating her in the scam, according to the documents.

Federal authorities ultimately had three cooperating witnesses to help them build their case.

One of the cooperating witnesses is a founder of the non-profit Key Worldwide Foundation based in California and another worked as the director of college exam prep at a prep school and sports academy in Bradenton, Florida, according to the court papers.

shyt isnt this what people with money are EXPECTED to do?

what's the point of having money if not to use it for shyt like this?
Yeah, money and connections. This shit reminds me of when the NCAA does those occasional busts when we all know athletes getting favors.

This shit just about some people getting thrown under the bus while the entire game of handshakes and winks carries on. Someone snitched and folks had to take the L.

The 'ring leader' is William Singer who parents paid to arrange fraudulent admissions.

One example... He paid the womens soccer coach at Yale $400k to recruit someone's daughter despite her never playing the sport. Singer took in $1.2m himself just for arranging it



I’m tripping out over this...

Can’t wait for the lifetime movie

I know of a place where the head of the pipe fitters union has his daughter installed as receptionist. I'm sure she draws a good salary.

I have been saying for YEARS how the whole college game is one of the biggest scams out there. And governments LOVE to throw all types of money at these colleges and they have this holier than thou untouchable image. Got nothing against colleges it's just that they get so much money and charge HUGE tuition fees. It's weird. But it is what it is.
