Judge showing a small amount of spine, rebuking a lot of the defense liarwyers typical bull . It looks like Full House chick gonna have to do something extreme to skate.
Dad receives 4 months in prison for paying $250K to get son into USC
BOSTON – Devin Sloane, a Los Angles business executive, was sentenced Tuesday to four months in prison for paying $250,000 to get his son accepted into the University of Southern California as a fake water polo recruit.
He is the second parent to be sentenced in Boston federal court in the nation's college admissions scandal after actress Felicity Huffman received 14 days in prison this month.
U.S. District Judge Indira Talwani also sentenced Sloane to 500 hours of community service over two years and a $95,000 fine.
"Just because you’re a good person doesn’t mean you don’t commit a crime when you do those things," Talwani said. “I come back to the action you took in bribing a college official. Bribing a college official is a serious crime. You are not a repeat player, but what you did involved your child."
Federal prosecutors had recommended that Sloane receive one year and a day in prison in addition to a $75,000 fine and 12 months of supervised release. Sloane's lawyers said he should be sentenced to 2,000 hours of community service instead of prison and proposed he launch and oversee a Special Olympics initiative at independent schools.
The judge rejected that idea, noting that Sloane has an exemplary record of community service. "I think those are very good characteristics," she said. "But I don’t understand how it’s punitive."
But Talwani interjected at several moments to disagree with his defense, including when Hochman disputed that Sloane knew Heinel received bribe money. He said his client did not know what Singer did with the money.
“Your client didn’t know how the messy details were being worked out," Talwani said. "But he understood the money was being used to bribe a USC official."
Hochman painted Singer as a "world-class scheme and manipulator" and suggested that Sloane would not have committed the crime if not for Singer. That also drew sharp disagreement from the judge.
"Why is that the question?" Talwani said, noting that she has defendants come before her court regularly who have been offered a “financial route” to sell drugs or commit other crimes. “Why does it matter that somebody invited him?”

Martha went to jail for lying to federal investigators, not for the act of insider trading itself
all of this for next to nothing... in reality, companies care very little to zero about where you went to school, but rather whether or not you actually have a degree and how many years of work experience you have. Going to USC or Stanford or Ivy league vs. UH-Galveston or Prairie View A&M won't make you more money aside from the fact you may have to relocate to an expensive state like California to make the exact same dollar figure (but COLA adjustments usually don't cover the true cost of living differences, especially state income taxes).
Lol it isn't about getting them into a good school to get a good job. It's a social status thing
Yeah, dumb. It's not like just going to a state school won't get him into a rad fraternity and laid with 50+ chicks every semester. School name is soooooo overrated and the schools profiteer wayyyy too much.
Yep.
Gregory and Marcia Abbott a month behind bars, will also have to complete a year of supervised release, pay a $45,000 fine and perform 250 hours of community service each, under sentences handed down in Boston by U.S. District Court Judge Indira Talwani.

So far the Richies are scoring with this liberal judge.
Does "supervised release" mean having to wear the ankle thing 24/7 for a year?
I'd rather just spend the time in jail.
New additional charges
Facing federal bribery charges. Loughlin and Giannulli, as well as 11 other parents who pleaded not guilty, were charged on Tuesday, according to federal prosecutors.
The bribery charge carries with it a sentence of up to five years in prison, three years of supervised release, and a fine of $250,000 or twice the gross gain or loss, whichever is greater.
Meh it feels like they're just piling on now. Just give her a month in jail and big fines
Or she and her husband have or will suck the right s and get off. He is purportedly still a regular at his Bel Air Country Club, yakking it up and displaying no worry whatsoever.
Several last week got more time then they thought. But ya still a couple weeks at Club Fed for them.
Full House I agree with you gets a token -month+ and a fine of less then 1% of her worth.
Not sure she only gets a month. I think she should though. She didn't directly hurt anyone. Sounding pretty bad for Lori tho.
F'd other people out of getting admitted. Certainly did.
Eh, I'm not sure the school didn't still let those kids in. It's not like there's a student population cap.
And either way, it seems more of a civil suit than a jail time criminal charge. Sue Lori, sue the school. Don't waste tax dollars prosecuting silly elitist .
