[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]FBI and US Attorneys look like heavy-handed lunatics with the 60 years threat. Nobody, not even eat the rich nutbags, want or think she deserves a year let alone 60 in the slammer. Just fine them heavily and give her 6 months. This selective enforcement is such a farce. Let me know when Jared Kushner and his dad are sent to prison for this. :roll: [/quote] You realize that the 60 years is not a threat. That is just a tally of what the maximum sentence is if they are found guilty of all charges. Essentially it has to assume that not only are the guilty of the charges, but they are explicitly complicit in the conspiracy portion, e.g. that they are the ones that helped to mastermind the fraud. That's the type of penalty that Rick Singer is looking at for the same charges. In this case, as they are not the ringleaders of the conspiracy, they are not going to be anywhere close to the maximum sentencing. However, the prosecutors are using the maximum possible sentence based on federal sentencing guidelines as their threat.[/quote] Np- yes, and it seems heavy handed. There have been some leaked correspondence that Mossimo emailed an accountant regarding the pay off. He described the money used for getting his kids into USC as “working the system” A legal analyst was trying to spin that as knowledge of fraud. I disagree those words specifically underscore the idea that both Lori and her husband thought this was a legitimate “side door”. [b]I think they will have a strong defense that Singer essentially conned them into the scheme. They aren’t college educated. They didn’t apply to university. [i]They might have a strong defense[/b].[/i][/quote] LOL And the prosecution can argue that they weren't so stupid that they didn't have an army of lawyers and business officials go over their contracts for Hollywood productions, TV deals, and the Mossimo brand. They deliberately hid this little side deal [i]because[/i] it was illegal. Not even touching on the daughters posed on sports equipment thing (indictments are coming for the oldest one already - https://people.com/tv/could-lori-loughlin-daughters-be-charged-college-admissions-scandal-legal-experts/). The fact that both of them are facing 60 years each because they refused to take a deal in Summer 2019 that could have gotten them 6 months in prison shows what narcissists they are. Their family and their kids are under so much stress because they won't admit they were wrong.[/quote] Not a chance. Instead of doing a legitimate donation of $5 or $10 million plus to get their kid into the university they went down the illegal $500,000 bargain basement path. [/quote] I think Felicity Huffman had very, very good legal counsel. Her brother is a lawyer. I'm sure her brother told her early on to cut a deal, do the time, pay the fines, put this behind her and get on with her life.[/quote]
