Actress Lori Loughlin taken into custody in 'Varsity Blues' college admission scam
Actress Lori Loughlin was taken into custody by the FBI Wednesday in Los Angeles after she, fellow movie star Felicity Huffman and 48 others were charged in a $25 million college admissions scam that has prompted repercussions from Hollywood to the boardrooms of major companies.
A former cast member on the ABC sitcom "Full House," Loughlin and Oscar-nominated actress Huffman, 56, are among 33 parents charged with conspiracy to commit mail and wire fraud in the nationwide scam to get their children into elite colleges, including Yale, Stanford, Georgetown and the University of Southern California.
The feds dubbed the investigation "Operation Varsity Blues" and said it was triggered by an unrelated investigation by FBI agents in Boston.

GOOD MORNING AMERICA'S HOMEPAGE:

Oh please we all know they won't do any jail time.
Important guy commenting rich power
@@importantguycommenting8156 It is wealth power, not white.
Maybe not, but we will see. I think the tax fraud component will be a major problem for them.
They might not directly for this, but some of these people also committed tax evasion and tax fraud. Its being reported that some of the dummies tried to claim the bribe money as a deduction, listed it as a donation to charity or something.. (how stupid can someone be?) Uncle Sam does not like that.
zudemaster That’s what I said too! I think if they hadn’t done that, they would have more of a chance to get off with a minor slap on the wrist.
Shouldn't the admissions be jailed too for accepting bribery?
The admissions people weren't in on the scheme - the athletic coaches and athletic officials were. They would take a bribe and tell the admissions office a particular kid was a star soccer player or crew member and the admissions office didn't have any reason to think they were lying. A bunch of coaches and athletic directors are being charged along with the parents.
English is not my first language, but isn't is "accepting" bribery?
Absolutely
Aiyisha Anderson Didn't you know this was going on?? Why are you JUST NOW out for blood?
Conor TAP MACHINE Mcgregor yes lol
The only time rich people go to jail is when it hurts another rich person’s bottom line.
EXACTLY! Someone didn't get there bribe in the FBI office and said fuck it, I'm taking everyone down.
Its when they "cheat the state out if taxable dollars "
Lol exactly
Dam right. More DESERVING and high test score students are not the priority. MONEY is. The feds are not going to bat an eye at this shit. Watch.
@@SY-no7di J
They will have to pay off the judges this time. Lol
Omg hahahaha
You're right
Best Comment Award 🥇
Or just they can hire a very very intelligent lawyer
PhantomMatrix They will....and will actually get away with it. In America...money always wins!
I'm waiting for these children to say they are self-made
Keir Ryota 😂 🤣 😭
Love that comment.😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Lol seriously these celeb kids need to pump it down.. Who do they think they are fooling
LOL :) Good one
You’ll be waiting a long time. Bring some water.
Never knew that was illegal. Thought it was common with the wealthy
The difference is that they should have given the bribe directly to the school as a "donation". If they had done that there wouldn't be a story.
Oh pleaes u cant be thst navie.
They committed Tax Fraud, because they filtered money through a CHARITY, so they could take a tax right off.
illegal in a lot of detail. and it just loud to be able to keep quite.
There is probably a lot of stuff the rich do and get away with that everyday Joes like us aren’t aware of because they keep it among themselves
"I don't really care about school" 🤦🏻♀️. Well darling, there's kids that DO care. This is just so wrong 😤.
Remember kids the moral of the story is that money really can buy anything. All that bs about working hard and being studious will pay off in the end just proves that it still doesn't matter as long as you are rich and have connections.
I disagree, I feel like the reason why we say work hard and be studious is BECAUSE there's ppl who can take your spot because of money. You have to be great in order to have a chance to the almighty dollar.... Plus if you are educated and have work ethic you have a better chance at earning your own money via self employment, investments, ect.
I want to know who else is on this list, not just two women who act for a living.
Mario Lopez Thank you
I got a copy of the indictment off of Twitter.
I can whistle Hey Jude while taking a shit.
The others are head coaches and presidents of organisation .
Stella Bar same
I want to know the names of the fifty parents involved, not only the celebrities.
Lore Strahan you can find the list online

There too rich to expose
Go to the Washington post and read the federal indictment. Everyone was wiretapped.

Jail time? Nah more like a slap on a wrist and see you at Starbucks later
I doubt it everyone goes to jail these days lot's of rich, people richer than those two are in there got life without parole in prison.
I don't know. Do you know how bad that would look if they're not punished? Especially in a bribe case, the public would accuse the courts of being bribed if they don't give them something. No doubt the judge is gonna try their hardest to not be accused of that.
That may be true but everybody now knows that they won't be walking around cutesie anymore.
PREDICTION!! Huffman and Loughlin will not serve one single day in jail. Why you ask? C’mon!!! Money! The great corruptor.
Agreed ! The Cosby show has a better chance of renewal.
I'm guessing they will. The judge might want to avoid being accused of bribery. It'll probably be no where near the max sentencing but I bet they get something otherwise the public and media might come after courts accusing them if accepting bribes as well.
@@skinsey85 I don't know ,if history keeps repeating itself they will be out at StarBucks before you can say "can I have a half half decaf":)
"Could face jail time" As if any normal person did this they wouldn't ABSOLUTELY get jail time
Like Smollett...may face jail time. If he were white he would be under the jail by now.
@@user-rs2oz2wh5o exactly. They said on the news that "he has 16 FELONIES and MAY face jail time"
TAProductions right?? There are parents in prison right now for using their parents address to get their kids into better elementary schools.
Roland Martin interviewed a black woman who was sent to prison, because she gave a different address just to get her kid into a nice high school. Even her dad was sent to prison and died there. I'm almost certain these rich white people will not do prison time
@@nicolelove9794 wait what? That's illegal??
I wonder how many talented, deserving working class students over the years were denied a chance at an elite university education because the place was allotted to some rich guy's vacuous brat.
These r selfish arragant people who think their evilness will never be found out. I'm Sur a lit if people will stop watch hallmark if they continue to employ Lore. If the rating go down enough they won't want her. . It infuriates me thtbibshouldchsive even was supportive to such a disgusting person by watch in iTunes and s buy all their seasons .
How many billions of more people were denied of opportunities in this shitty world? Think about back then when 99% of people were peasants with no education at all. 21st century is not so different.
Arvin...You know..you got a good point here!...the Universities has been doing it wrong!..some students leaves college with a degree they can't use, because either they lack the experience or the field is over saturated!..so their courses and curriculums should evolve around the students themselves!..if your going to pay a student loan for 2 or 3 decades?..then there should be opportunities waiting for you when you finish your studies and get your degree...since these Universities has sponsors and connections to major corporations and their affiliates...they should have enough positions for the new students entering into the work force....i know some people who went into the field of Law , and are now stuck with a $250,000 student loan that they know they'll never be able to pay back in their life time!..now they know what it's like to be in enslaved!..financial bondage and slavery..its all the same!

I was denied to Harvard because a legacy girl who was at the bottom of her class got in... and I didn't having a 4.0 GPA, graduated with honours in high school, having recommendations from my teachers and presenting a SUMMA CUM LAUDE ESSAY... fuck rich people.

Rich folks will bribe their way out of this situation too...
Not this time. It's a federal crime.
If they dint get a sentence I will beleive that To
Lori just owes 1 million dollars
Exactly smh
Well they will have to pay a lot of money
I really hope her daughter makes a “moving out of USC because I got kicked out” video.
Articles claim that they "dropped out" cause they were bullied about the scandal
@Tidder T even if they deserve everything that is coming to them they are making it seem like they are victims in all this... It's college, nobody gets bullied there
her videos are starting to get more dislikes then likes, hoping this ruins her career, will teach parents to stop living through thiere children
Regan Butler: I'm wondering why you even care. Apart from you and the other small minded people who jump on this 'exclusive' trial by media story, no one else in the world cares. We are seeing this news story being broadcast across the world and even in Australia. Get over yourselves.
@Tidder T I don't know about the two females on the left but the dude and his wife on the right are one of the parents busted for the scandal
Shouldn't USC be charged in this as well because they accepted the funds?🤷♂️
DrPhilGood Huxtable the coaches were charged
I don't think they accepted the funds. My understanding is that certain people with the school accepted some of the money, but the college presidents weren't in on it.
They will pay a fine and be on probation. It's Hollywood!!
or the most that can happen is a month of house arrest.
"Forget it, Jake. It's Tinsletown."
None of these interviewers better get caught doing the same thing...
Yes! Its a different World.$500,000 so your daughter can party .
They won't go to jail, but their reputations are smashed now and their kids could be expelled.
Kids will definitely be expelled
Marl Kalone yes they will
@@baegoals8112 they wont
No they won’t && they dropped out
marl Kalone: oh puhleese. If they robbed a bank then they wouldn't get work again. Todays news will be yesterdays news in a months time. Don't tell me that all the people condemning these parents wouldnt do the same if they had the money. And all the nasty comments from the trolls coming in here attacking the young girls? Jealousy is as jealousy speaks.
“2 of Hollywood’s brightest stars” lol chill out
brian bonilla 🤣😂
Education guy has a very sly, dry sense of humor. Im diggin it
They will never see inside a jail cell. They will pay a huge fine (maybe) and parole. The rich never are put behind bars
It's hilarious that both actresses are associated with TV shows that had an episode about cheating in school!
The irony
That’s where they got the idea from
I guess they didn't study the script properly.. the lessons didn't sink in.
Craig Wickersham they were acting
Their education starts with how to lie and buy your way through life.
Just like Trump.
Henry Coats: oh gee. Well I'm sure all Americans are so upset they're glued to their tv set for the next riveting chapter..not.
Its religion...when theres a big vacuous hole where captain snappy lives and his long lost son he never ever had at all starts a choppin on the idea humans are now able to die and return to hollywood years later to proclaim world rule? Yeah, youre gonna be able to lie....celebrities don't get mad and women dont abuse men or children...they put on leotards and capes and fight crime and find big diamonds and gold for the american goverment to make money...oh thank you super celebrity! Now we can afford to spend our way into applesauce futures and leatherbound shares!
@@lancelove9700 you're on something obviously.
Meanwhile I’m for scraping change going to a community college gotta love it
elizabeth mcgee good attitude. I went to community college and made great money!
As part of the parents’ punishment, these parents should be forced to take these SAT’s themselves..and make THEM study for it!
Now that’s Shameless! 🤷🏾♂️
Lol😂
Yep, my words exactly on another thread.
46 months...? And people who sold weed are in for 20 years 🤦🏻♂️ Prison reform af
America has a very weird university admission system. Here in New Zealand you just have to pass high school and get your university entrance credits. No one really cares if you played sport or not 🤷🏾♀️
Could face jail time? COULD? If that were anyone else that didn't have a celebrity status they WOULD go to jail.
This is also totally disrespectful to kids with disabilities who struggle immensely academically and in life. This sense of entitlement among the rich is horrifying and heartbreaking.
Agree.....
Deborah Hoffman hmmm it is disrespectful to ALL of us who worked out asses off. Not clear why the disabled should be more insulted? Equally, not more.
Because the scandal involved taking the entitled students to a doctor/psychologist, pretending to have a learning disability, then asked the school to give them accommodation for the fake learning disability which made it easier to cheat
It’s hard enough to get accommodations for a learning disability when it’s legit, now these rich kids are faking learning disabilities to make it easier to fake their scores
mcbeeze Because individuals with disabilities in this country have a 75% unemployment rate and are still highly discriminated against. Get a grip. I suppose you are jealous of them now? Pathetic.
"Is the system rigged?" - the real question should be, "how badly is it rigged?"
Its been rigged sense Harvard was founded! and it was the first ever college in the US. At that point was only available to the very very wealthy that consisted of the first ever graduating class from a college.
-.- just pay a judge for “ get out of jail card”
How in God's name could anybody actually watch Full House?
When you are this rich, why bother going to school. College is for middle class and poor class to move on. Makes no sense cheating to get in when you are rich.
Your parents are not you
@@chickensalad5591 their money will be your money. Why do you think rich kids get it easy because generational wealth. Also parents having money can give you start up money for your own business, too bad for the poor kids go work at McDonalds to pay off your tuition.
@@MrMannyhw they go to school to buff up their worth to investors. That's what lauri daughter did to get all this companies trying to break a deal with her.
So they can say they are smarter and richer than us
A good college diploma is like a "I am superior" trophy. They want it.
They should have spent a quarter of that on a great tutor.... totally legal..
a f t e r s h o c k Those kids are probably just not intelligent enough
@@JannaCR College isnt about intelligence.
They rather shop on mommy and daddy credit card than a tutor
I didn't know that USC was difficult to get into. The real crime is the cost of tuition!
These rich white celebrities seeing jail time! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 There's a better chance of seeing snow here in beautiful San Diego!
Grab em by the Pussy FACTS THEIR 🐍 ASSES WILL ONLY GET A FUCKN SLAP ON THE BUTT & A FINGER SHAKEN AT THEM. In a month most ppl will have moved on to some other 🐍 doing what THEY ARE KNOWN FOR DOING. Smfh THEY will never learn bcs THEY never pay any consequences 😡😠😡😠
Jail time? Nah... they'll just pay their way out of it
I want the media to drag all of them in this scam just like they did Jussie Smollett!!! “Keep that same energy “!!!
Nah. Not this time...
They've no choice now lol the world knows. If they get away with this shit they're be an uproar. If this were regular folk they'd be in jail. Just because you're rich and famous doesn't mean you should be above the laws.
O W They will go to jail
Killer Queen Agreed
And these aren’t their kids dream schools, they are the parents dream schools. Many of these kids admitted that they didn’t even want to go to university.
Regan Butler: oh gee golly gosh. Like its such a big deal to some people in the US but no-one outside the US cares. Hellloooooo
SEND THEM ALL AWAY FOR A LONG TIME! Oh and take the USC yacht to pay for lawsuits.
These spoiled rich kids need to be expelled immediately. Why are they still there?
From full house to the big house
This 😂😂😂
Ouch
Olivia Jade said she couldn't care less about school, but wanted to go to football games and parties!!
Beckyssssa be likeeeeee
Makes you wonder how much was being paid for her to STAY in college. Passing grades aren’t easy.
And? Even if she wanted to go to an ivy league to study medicine that doesn't make it any less disgusting
gemgirl1995 and the gross part is she’s famous because of it. Kids look up to her.
That stupid little brat!
"AuntBecky" BWAAAHAAAAAA! I LOVE American humor!
Do they want to pay for my student loans???? I only owe $45k. My estimated pay off date is June 2049. I’ll be 59.
What about the admission offices ACCEPTING these bribes..? They are just as much at fault
Dig deeper down the rabbit hole🐰
It’s my understanding they didn’t bribe admissions. They bribed other people to help them lie to admissions, basically.
Ginelle you need to learn to READ first.
Only sensible comment on this thread. Seriously.
why didnt they just donate? I thought rich families donating so the school would let their kid in was like a common normal thing rich people could get away with
I guess they needed to do more
It is and they will definitely get away with this. You'll see. The rich have no consequences because they have money.
Yes, but how much? If you try to bribe your way in with a few hundred K - well, you takes your chances. If they had donated 10's of millions, then then they would be breaking ground on the new 'Huffman Center for Performing Arts' or the new 'Loughlin Science Center'. These people are kinda-sorta rich, not filthy stinking rich.
They are rich but aren’t rich enough to donate a building to a school like the old money rich family
Ian Board she’s not an oil tycoon she’s an actress
whats so scary is think of all the people who got into colleges like this and now have careers.... doctors, dentists, lawyers etc
hope none of these fifty people and any others who did this never gets another job. in their life. let them live on what they have screwed us out of .bet that money they paid would come in handy then. Sherry hall
These people won't spend ONE MINUTE behind bars. Not one solitary minute, because MONEY AND FAME. They'll go right back to their privileged lives as though none of this ever happened.
Tony W most likely, but I hope not
I hope they all drop dead
And the girls are gonna stay in the same school.
WRONG! They are GOING TO JAIL! Martha Stewart ring a bell???? Federal Law is different than State Laws. They will serve in Federal Penitentiary, like Martha Stewart did. Martha Stewart LIED, and she served over 2 years in jail.
For sure
How did they know they could pay to get the kids in? The neighbors and friends? This is bigger than they think.
They knew they could pay for admission for their Children , it's their culture to Lie and steal. WP...Black Students who achieved High Grades and Scores on SATs was not admitted...Work hard and pull Yourself up by the boot strap and When You do it means nothing cause the Non Black whom have mediocre grades and low SAT score wealth buys them the spot..
@@queenshaasiabeautifulearth2223 Why all the color comments? There are plenty of white kids living in poverty that the same thing happens to. Never get to go to College. Poverty doesn't have a race.
@@Hunny1au I never said that impoverished Children are limited to color...Im speaking on Experience that Black Children have the grades and aced their SAT test to have been denied. I'm pretty sure that their are non blacks whom have experienced it as well..Im speaking about what I know. The Race to the finish line is still unequal. Thanks for You Added on information💯
History have also shown that Black students test scores have been reduced to reflect with scores of other Children.
They should do a major jail time , period !!! No exceptions a $5 to $500,000 of bribery or should I say extortion are the same
It seems that 2019 is the year of exposure 1. Jussie Smollett 2. R Kelly 3. Felicia Huffman 4. Lori Loughlin, now who’s next.....
Michelle Adu a year of pansy’s
Pretty soon Trump, hopefully...
They'll just buy their way out of jail
Stop, we all know you ain’t sending no pretty, rich, white women to jail. Just like there’s two different college admissions systems, there’s two different judicial systems.
B Mac I don’t know... Martha Stewart went to prison. The homemaking Queen. Senior citizen as well by then. So it may be that they want to set an example out of them as they should.
Lisa Locke Girl please, I live in Connecticut. The “prison “ Martha Stewart was in is nicer than most hotels you and I have stayed in. 😂😂😂
@@lisamiddleton3475 Correct. This is a Federal indictment not a State case. 99% of federal indictments end in guilty plea deal and they will be sentenced as per their guideline range.
@@kidmario08 when u mess with federal u r in deep trouble there is more whites in federal prison doing time
I don't think they will go to jail either and its because of all the reasons that you listed, we all live in an evil world. But at least those two actress won't be able to work again (hopefully)
A direct donation would have been so much cheaper in the long run and achieved the exact same result.
1:27 it's funny how almost all news networks play this clip in their coverage hahaha love it😂😂😂
Uncle Jessie is about to get so many offers now that Aunt Becky might go to jail.
LOL...

Shut up.
@Narciso Duran 😂😭💀
Have mercy!
“wow, it turns out money was the real Affirmative Action all along!”
good one
Lol
My advice is don't trust the system,or even the selfish government of the U.S.
Five teachers in Georgia were jailed for 5 years for changing their student's answers on a standardized test. A woman in Ohio was jailed for falsifying her address in order to get her daughter into an elementary school in a better school district. All of these people were people of color, of moderate incomes, and deserved to go to jail. In that same right, celebrities and the rich know darn well that they can and will use their money, identity, and influence to buy their way out of this legal disaster. The lesson learned: life isn't fair and it never will be. However, when you're caught....you have to pay the price no matter what race, class, socio economic status, etc... you are.
Mothers are in prison for food stamp fraud, these women must face the same. Fair is fair.
Olivia should post a 'day in life of a college athlete' vid ..
Olivia is adorable.
😂😂😂😂😂
Mamiya Phan zero integrity is SOO cute!!
Mamiya Phan y’all love kissing her butt
Lol
Send them to jail nobody is above the law.
I remember when I was applying for a private high school in Europe...besides tests there was an in person interview with the director of the school, me and my parents. We were discussing my great test results, my activities, future etc. At the end of the interview he asked if my family could make a financial contribution to the school (on top of already high tuition). We could not afford any extra payments at that time. Needless to say I did not make the cut and my rich friend did.
Kinda makes you think the system is rigged and no matter what people always trying too take the easy way out
I agree except for "KINDA"

After the number of teachers indited for cheating on students test, it is no way these rich people should be treated any different, because they have committed a crime.

Not surprising at all,this has been happening before we were born the only difference is this time some of them are Celebrities and they got caught

I only know Felicity Huffman because I watched her movie Transamerica. She was amazing in that film. The other woman, never heard of her. I heard about Full House but never bothered to look it up.
That's because you're too busy catching Pokemon.
We need smart people in charge not rich stupid people! Bahaha
I’m happy at the fact that the parents and their daughters’ reputations are tarnished and they’re already getting dropped. One of the parents involved who was CEO of some company already dropped down from his position after shares plummeted. They’re never getting over this.
I love how he said it's not an admissions scandal but that's what they called the news segment
"their dream schools" YEET. They could care less about going to school, Oliva Jade even said she just wants to party.

They always say people are going to jail and nobody does
These are not the first ones to do this shit get real people!!
No they are just acting like it. “ we’re talking about the biggest scandal rocking Hollywood.” First quote of the video...
I doubt any will actually do jail time, but how unfortunate for a mom to risk jail time only to have a daughter be so ungrateful about being in college at all.
Kay2be2mr They Will
They won’t get jail time, it will cost that wallet again but @Kay2be2mr said it best that the little shits aren’t even thankful for being enrolled. Brats!!
unfortunate? I don't think it's unfortunate at all for an evil woman to go to jail since she robbed away the chances of someone deserving to go to USC and for her thinking she can get away with it because of money. She will get jail time for the biggest fraud scandal because they will set an example of her.
@@Sarah-eb1zq The unfortunate part was referring to having an ungrateful daughter. Not about possibly getting jail time. I HOPE they go to jail! I just don't think it will come that.
They should get Robert Mueller and his team to investigate this..... The kids should have their DOCTORATES by then....
Why aren’t any of the news stations talking about these kids involvement. I read the complaint and the vast majority of them knowingly participated in the cheating, lying and deception. There needs to be some accountability and repercussion for their involvement!
Nice to know the hi standards of academia.
How did my middle class husband get into an Ivy? By being the valedictorian of his class.

Why did I spend so much money on your education... 😑
Meh... they’ll all write books and become even wealthier
Nobody buys books

Its unfair for the people that work hard to get into those schools, but at the same time they were trying to better their kids lives.
They won’t get jail time. They’ll have to pay X amount of money & X amount of community service. If anything, it might be House Arrest
their rich nothing will happen to them unfortunatley
Absolutely shameful!!
If a black mother got 3 years in prison for falsely putting an address so that her daughter can get into a university. What do these evil people get ?
