Lori Laughlin arrested for college scandal

[Anonymous]

Lori Laughlin looks exactly like those southern women who feel the need to insert words like 'blessed', 'the lord' and 'amen' multiple times in a conversation. She has that same generic and phony smile thats prevalent in Dixie land

When are they going to re-arrest the parents of Jared Kushner? They donated 1.2 million and got him into Harvard despite him being a mediocre student.

Donations are ok, bribes are not. That's what separates new money from old, the wealthy from the merely rich.

At what point do donations = bribes?

A donation supports the mission of the university. A bribe does not.

A donation supports the mission of the university. A bribe does not.

NP, where does the bribe money go though? Into the pockets of university officials? Or does it still ultimately end up benefiting the school?

It goes into the pockets of the people running the scam.

PP doesn’t want to do the work of reading the article about people who didn’t want to do the work.

The indictment — filed by the United States Attorney for the District of Massachusetts — alleges that Huffman, Loughlin, Giuannulli and 29 other people were involved in the scheme, which bribed college entrance-exam administrators to allow cheating on the tests and university athletic coaches to designate school applicants as athletic recruits, regardless of athletic ability or experience playing a sport. The money for the payments allegedly was funneled through a charity to disguise the wrongdoing.

I wonder if there are more "Hollywood-esque" folks involved . . .

No they haven't been arrested, just charged.

I read an article that said that Huffman was arrested and Laughlin agreed to surrender.

Oh what? WHERE

TMZ

Felicity Huffman knew she was a target of the federal investigation into bribery in the college admissions process ... but she had no idea 7 feds would show up at her door Tuesday morning with guns drawn.

Sources familiar with the arrest tell TMZ, 7 FBI agents showed up at Felicity's Hollywood Hills home at 6 AM and drew their weapons as they ordered Felicity to come out and surrender.
