Do they google search all the applicants? I mean it took a snitch to the FBI for them to even be onto this scam.

USC knew. A guidance counselor at the girls’ private school placed a call to USC mentioning that their school didn’t have a crew team. The bribes crew coach got a call, informed Singer, who informed the Laughlin family and the dad screamed at the guidance counselor who apologized for doubting the girls.

This shows knowledge of and intent to participate in the scheme by Loughlin and the husband. They going down...

Well, this and the 500,000.

I had not heard this, and the way you wrote it makes it a little confusing. Are you saying the USC admissions committee knew before they admitted her that her High school didn't have a rowing team? And they called the crew coach for what? Were they (the admissions committee) fully aware he was recruiting someone who had never rowed? Is that what you are saying? Where did you read this?

Please go read the old articles or the old thread about this. The USC crew coach and the Asst. Athletic Director took bribes to say she was a crew recruit. The admissions office did not verify her athletic status because they assumed the athletic department was tagging legitimate recruits for their admissions slots.

Yeah, that's my understanding also. So how does the pp above say "USC knew?"

No. Her high school counselor asked how she could be a rowing recruit as the school did not have a crew team. The USC coach lied and said she competed on an elite club team, not a school team. The coach and assistant AD were in on the scam, not the USC admissions office. They trusted the coach and AD.

Or they engaged in willful blindness so as to not rock the boat. There is case in the following article where the school called USC admissions to say that they didn't have a water polo team, and yet the kid was designated a water polo recruit. Yes, the bribed coach was the instigator, but the USC admissions director knew about the school's skepticism, because the school called them directly.

That's what I thought also. Doesn't support the comment that "USC knew."

If you want to engage in willful blindness, go ahead, but the FBI affadavits suggest that USC admissions had many interactions that suggested the lack of honesty of the fraudulent families.

According to the FBI affidavit, a guidance counselor at indicted parent Devin Sloane's son's high school allegedly questioned the student's acceptance into USC as a water polo recruit and alerted the USC admission office.

Sloane, the founder and CEO of Los Angeles-based provider of drinking water and wastewater systems aquaTECTURE, agreed to plead guilty to one count of conspiracy to commit mail fraud and honest services mail fraud on April 5.

USC's former Senior Athletic Director Donna Heinel, who has been indicted by the Department of Justice and was fired by USC after news of the bribery scheme broke, allegedly sent an email in April 2018 to the "USC Director of Admissions."

According to the affidavit, Heinel acknowledged that the student's high school does not have a water polo team, but insisted that the student had water polo experience and cited his interaction with then-USC Water Polo Head Coach Jovan Vavic in Serbia. The affidavit says the student's athletic experience was fabricated. Vavic has been indicted by the Department of Justice and was fired by USC after the revelation.

The affidavit says that "USC Director of Admissions" replied to Heinel, calling the case "unusually skeptical."

Here is the email copy, per the affidavit:

"Thanks, for this. If you don't mind, I'll pass an edited/paraphrased version of your note along to the school, to assure them we're looking at this stuff. They seemed unusually skeptical. I think they do have a water polo team, but I wouldn't expect it to be competitive. It's a small school; I read a good deal about tennis, some basketball, but not much else in the way of athletics."

The document does not describe any follow-up about the red flag. According to the Office of Admission on USC's public directory, Kirk Brennan holds the position of Director of Admission. In the same March 27 email to Annenberg Media, Harrington, speaking on behalf of Brennan, said that she cannot confirm or reveal the identity of USC director of admissions due to ongoing investigations.

^ This was after the guy had already been accepted though. Not sure if he's still there once the story came out.

To be clear, I dislike them immensely. But, not illegal.

If you can't understand the difference with the mountain of facts about both situations, including an entire book written about development admits 20 years ago or so, I really don't think I can explain to you why.
