College admissions scandal: First trial in alleged bribery scheme heads to jury
Fox News
Two wealthy parents who are the first to stand trial in the college admissions bribery scandal used lies and money to steal coveted spots at prestigious schools their kids couldn’t secure on their own, a prosecutor said Wednesday before jurors decide if the men are guilty.
"These parents were not willing to take ‘no’ for an answer and to get to ‘yes,’ they crossed a line," Frank said. "And in crossing that line, they broke the law."
The case now will head to jurors more than two years after FBI agents arrested dozens of well-known parents, athletic coaches and others across the country in the scheme involving rigged test scores and bogus athletic credentials. Nearly four dozen people have already pleaded guilty in the case.
