Attorneys for some of the parents in the college-admissions cheating case who are holding out rather than plead guilty are chipping away at basic facts of the case as they argue their clients were misled

Defense lawyers preview arguments in new filings that claim Rick Singer misled parents and USC wasn’t really a victim

High-end college consultant Allen Koh was shocked to learn his colleague and competitor Rick Singer pleaded guilty to crimes including conspiracy and racketeering. WSJ sat down with Koh for insight into the multimillion-dollar college-consulting industry and what is driving parents to such desperate measures.

I did *not* know that President Obama consulted with Rick Singer for help in his Nobel Peace Prize application. It is expected that Ms. Loughlin will testify that Obama said, 'Singer is cool'.

She knew exactly what she was doing. I hope the FBI takes her down.

Question: If Laughlin/Husband & other parents are being prosecuted for college-admissions cheating, why has no one investigated Elizabeth Warren? Did she falsify her college admissions applications identifying herself as a Native American? Was this for preferential consideration?

USC was not the victim. The real victim s were the students you cheated out of their rightful admission to USC.

Impeach her too.

Oh shit! Aunt Becky going to trial!! Uncle Jessie!!!!

No one believes they didn’t know where the money went… Besides what’s up with all the Photoshopped pics?😂 This is all well thought and planned by the parents🤦‍♀️ And screwing other applicants who really DID work hard to get accepted! Wish I was the Judge...!!🤓

They are holding out because they are playing the 'GENDER' card issue. I'm not concerned whether or not she's a guy or girl. The rules have been abused and she with her cronies, need to be doing time in prison. There is no equality nor will there ever be. ♀️

My guess is that this won’t play out well for them... negotiate a settlement ... risk of trial is too huge. If their ego gets in their way, they might just find out celebrity doesn’t hold much in a court of law.

So they are claiming to be stupid criminals not dishonest criminals

Oh mercy !

Fuck them

Hit them with rico. I mean i always arrange my ‘donations’ through a third party back channel. I also expect my kids a position at the organization I am ‘donating’ to.

Misled there was nothing wrong with bribing college officials to get their children into schools? Okay.

The trump defense. Will it work?

wow. she's not THAT good an actress...just admit you f-ed up, pay your fine, do your time. 🙄

Chipping away a.k.a. billable hours.

God. They got caught. Pay up and shut up.

Lock her up!

Lol good luck with that

So what about well known politicians? Will they be investigated as well?

Yes, because paying 10s of thousands of dollars to a third party is the normal procedure for applying to college.

They were buying their way in and now looking for a legal loophole to save heir asses.

The Mike Flynn approach. Didn't work for him.
