Lori Loughlin And Felicity Huffman Among Dozens Indicted For College Admissions Scam

This is pretty low!
Felicity Huffman has been arrested, and Lori Loughlin has a warrant out for her arrest, after an investigation uncovered that dozens of people, including the actresses, paid money to get their kids into ivy league colleges with the help of a fake charity!
A man named William Rick Singer created a fake non-profit thru which to funnel the payments from the parents to the universities, which ranged from $200K all the way up to $6.5 million!
Huffman paid roughly $15K to "participate in the college entrance exam cheating scheme on behalf of her oldest daughter," while Loughlin "agreed to pay bribes totaling $500,000 in exchange for having their two daughters designated as recruits to the USC crew team — despite the fact that they did not participate in crew — thereby facilitating their admission to USC.†Singer is now expected to plead guilty to rackateering.
"Dozens of individuals involved in a nationwide conspiracy that facilitated cheating on college entrance exams and the admission of students to elite universities as purported athletic recruits were arrested by federal agents in multiple states and charged in documents unsealed on March 12, 2019, in federal court in Boston," the court papers read.
So how did the Full House star and Desperate Housewives star get nabbed? The FBI recorded a series of calls with them and a witness that was cooperating with authorities!
We can't wait to see what other names come to light with this scandal! Let's hope Kris Jenner got Rob Kardashian into USC the honest way!
