| FELICITY HUFFMAN AND LORI LOUGHLIN |
A Sophisticated Fraud System
The Massachusetts Attorney has just made an announcement that will make a splash. Actresses Felicity Huffman (Desperate Housewives) and Lori Loughlin (Home Party) come to be charged for bribing intermediaries to secure prestigious places for their children.
This is the scandal that has shaken Hollywood and the prestige of the largest American universities. In the United States, to integrate the most prestigious universities in the country and ensure a bright future, it is necessary to show flawless and irreproachable results. Yet, American justice has just brought to light a system of bribes that allowed wealthy parents to falsify the records of their dear children so that they can still have access to these institutions.
Felicity Huffman, the unforgettable Lynette in Desperate Housewives, and Lori Loughlin (The Party at Home) are part of a group of about thirty people, including CEOs, coaches, investors, renowned designers, etc., who have just been charged with bribery. They accused of providing large amounts of money (close to $ 6 million) to intermediaries to facilitate the admission of their children to enter prominent universities; such as Georgetown, Stanford, UCLA, Yale, the University of Texas, San Diego, Southern California and Wake Forest.
Felicity Huffman would have made "charitable donation of 15,000 dollars (more than 13,000 euros)" to allow her eldest daughter to integrate the institution of her choice. On the other hand, Lori Loughlin and her husband Mossimo Giannulli have agreed to pay bribes totaling $ 500,000 (around 443,000 euros) for their two daughters Olivia, 19-year-old, and Isabella, 20-year-old. As rookies at the University of South Carolina rowing team, while not rowing, Olivia and Isabella should successfully integrate into this university.
"There cannot be a parallel admission system for wealthy people, just as there cannot be a different justice system either," asserted General Andrew Lelling, Massachusetts Attorney, at a press conference held in Boston on Tuesday, March 12th, and broadcast on CNN.
