      XPost: misc.survivalism, talk.politics.guns, or.politics       XPost: alt.politics.liberalism       From: swirling-turds@latimes.com              The former UCLA men's soccer coach will plead guilty to taking       $200,000 in bribes as part of the college admissions cheating       scheme, federal prosecutors said Tuesday.              Jorge Salcedo, 47, of Los Angeles, will admit to getting bribes       in exchange for helping get one male and one female student into       the school as fake soccer recruits. He will plead guilty to a       racketeering conspiracy charge, according to court documents.              Salcedo was among 50 people charged last year in the case that       has embroiled the world of higher education. More than 30       wealthy parents, coaches at elite schools and others have       already pleaded guilty to taking or paying bribes to rig college       entrance exams or have students recruited to teams for sports       they didn't play.              An email seeking comment was sent to Salcedo's lawyer Tuesday.              Salcedo accepted $100,000 to help California couple Bruce and       Davina Isackson get their daughter into UCLA as a bogus soccer       recruit, prosecutors said. The Isacksons also have pleaded       guilty and have been cooperating with authorities in the hopes       of getting a lighter sentence.              Salcedo took another $100,000 bribe from the admissions       consultant at the center of the scheme, Rick Singer, to       "recruit" the son of Xiaoning Sui of Surrey, British Columbia,       to his team, authorities said. Singer and Sui also have pleaded       guilty.              Other parents charged in the case include "Full House" star Lori       Loughlin and her fashion designer husband, Mossimo Giannulli,       who are accused of paying $500,000 to get their two daughters       into USC as crew recruits even though neither girl was a rower.              The couple says they're innocent and that their payments were       legitimate donations. They're scheduled to go to trial alongside       six other parents in October.              "Desperate Housewives" actress Felicity Huffman admitted to       paying $15,000 to have someone cheat on her daughter's SAT exam.       She was sentenced to two weeks in prison.              https://www.espn.com/college-sports/story/_/id/29078562/boise-       state-coaches-athletics-staff-take-furloughs                      --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
