William H. Macy Avoided Arrest over College Cheating Scandal Because Incriminating Emails [Trunc]

Actor William H. Macy may have avoided being charged over the college admissions scandal because the allegedly incriminating emails were sent by his wife.

Desperate Housewives actress Felicity Huffman is among 50 people who have been accused of paying bribes to get their children into America's top colleges.

Huffman wrote an email about making a 'charitable contribution' of $15,000 to get their first daughter's SAT answers corrected, court documents show.

Although the FBI allegedly recorded Macy discussing doing the same for his second daughter, Georgia Grace, the couple ultimately decided against doing so.

In the same phone call Macy was recorded explicitly acknowledging the bribe for his first daughter, Sofia Grace.

Anyone notice the bimbos on MSNBC don’t seem to care about this story? Any guesses why they don’t want to cover it?

It’s a mystery, right?

"I dont believe in ruining the lives of teenagers over the crimes of their parents"

Just because they are not getting into an elite university that they are not qualified to get into to begin with I would not characterize as ruining their lives.

My life wasn't ruined because I went to a small college. I'm sure these pampered brats will survive not going to Harvard. [sarcasm] Lots of hours of therapy will get them through it.... [/sarcasm] Oh, the horrors of going to a (gasp) state school!!

At least now we know how AOC got into, and through, college.

So does anyone know if Macy, Huffman or Laughlin are your typical Hollywood virtue signallers about the poor and downtrodden?

Laughlin is, don't know about the others.

As a Puerto Rican female, she had all the bonus points required without any bribes or fakery.

Not true. The second daughter had a tutor and was getting decent SAT scores. The older one was the partier.

I read the transcript. Macy was in in the calls. Why didnt they charge him. Did she pay they joint account?

I am sure there are many of us who have watched their kids set goals and worked every day academically and or athletically towards college scholarships. Our daughters four years of high school revolved around ONE THING, tennis. She missed many social events because her goal was to get a full ride to play college tennis. So when she was getting ready to apply, she put together a video of her playing, she submitted newspaper clippings, referrals from coaches, her USTA and high school win/loss records, etc. All the while studying like crazy for her SATs and NCAA eligibility. Who knew that all she had to do was put her face on Serena Williams body and voila! Full ride.

the scammer wanted to delude the kids into thinking they earned those scores

In other words All the kids were TOO STUPID to understand?? Not a chance, I guarantee you they all had their suspicions and went along with the Fraud and if there actually Trials, it will come out.

You need evidence. That’s why W.H. Macy will be ordering in-call massage services tonight while the missus is fighting off her new cell mate.

If the kids are stupid enough to brag about it, then you’ve got evidence.

They’ll likely end up getting a few. This is the beginning of this, not the end.

This was supposedly a movie made from a real incident, but was in Connecticut, not Minnesota....................

The wood chipper part was.Years ago there was an airline pilot in Connecticut who,for some reason,decided that his wife was a burden and so rented a wood chipper and put her in it. IIRC it's written up in Wikipedia...but am not 100% certain.

This story is getting very boring very fast and I’m starting to wonder why they’re trying to promote it so much

With any of the stories like Kashoggi or whatever you have always have to wonder why are they trying to promote it
