Pleas show divergent legal strategies among those charged in the scandal.

Actress Lori Loughlin and her husband, clothing designer Mossimo Giannulli, left federal court in Boston on April 3.

She and Giannulli waived their right to appear in federal court in Boston for arraignment as they filed not-guilty pleas Monday through signed statements. Prosecutors allege that the couple paid a total of $500,000 to facilitate admission of their daughters to USC as purported crew recruits.[A Trojan horse: USC was the most frequent target in alleged admissions scheme]

Singer has pleaded guilty to racketeering conspiracy and other crimes and is cooperating in the case. Others are fighting the allegations in a case that could hinge on whether payments the parents made are judged to have been bribes or simply contributions to university athletic programs and a charity Singer controlled.

Is she the one whose daughter is an Instagram ‘influencer’ who “doesn’t care about school”? Kind of an arrogant attitude unless she’s truly innocent, which is doubtful.

Best advice I ever got: never admit to anything

Perhaps the defence team has found a technicality.

The saddest part is that the spot occupied by their children is wasted, since none of them seem to be bright students anyway. Litarily a case of 'throwing pearls to the pigs'.

People be guilty as Judas and plead not guilty 😏

' not guilty '? .

Her? Guilty? Nooooo. Because she’s ENTITLED to it, damn it!

Throw away the key!!

If they are found guilty, they should get the max.

Time to hire Martha Stewart for consulting services and go ahead and sign the book deal now: 'Codeswitching to a Confinement Culture: Beyond Orange is the New Black.'

Must have hired Smollett boy’s lawyers 🤷🏻‍♂️. I expect the feds and the university system to issue a full apology in the coming days 🤦🏻‍♂️🍸

When a sense of entitlement overrides humility and common sense.

Just like Jussie!

Not smart

Those recordings, though....

Could they use a photo of her looking more snotty or entitled? I hope not.

She denies it. She denies it very strongly, so we have no reason to doubt her, so she is innocent...

Jesus Tittyfucking Christ.... What...does she think she’s gonna get on the witness stand and crank out some Lifetime Movie Network tears and everyone will be like “awwww” These fuckers play for keeps. If you don’t wanna go to prison, get a new lawyer and stop taking bad advice

Why is Henry Winkler standing behind her & tuckercarlson said, 'if she's smart she'll hire that porn lawyer, MichaelAvenatti before he gets sent up the river.' Classic Tucker.

How much does it cost to have someone else stand in for you at your trial? Jail time extra.
