Sounds like there should also be some tax fraud charges against quite a few of the defendants as well but did not see any listed. Lots of money changed hands supposedly as charitable contributions and I suspect it was probably written off as such on their taxes. And I pretty much guarantee the recipients of those payments did not pay tax on them.

After the bribe to get in is paid I wonder what a 3.8 GPA costs? Do any of those "students" ever go on to earn or do the lawyers in charge of their trust fund make sure they don't ever go broke?

I think this is terrible, but I wonder why the FBI is envolved in private college admissions. I had this answer earlier and now I've lost it.

Elizabeth Warren said she has no sympathy for the cheating parents. Talk about a hyprocrate. Would she be an "indian-giver"?
