Sounds like a recipe for disaster. But then, they can always blame their lawyers for not controlling them.
They’ll “say” thty thought they were “contributing to the school” for admitting their daughter.....but they got bigger
problems.
They were engaged in money laundering.
The bribes for admittance were not paid directly to the school.....they were “washed” through a phony “do-good” foundation, listed as “donations.”
The bribers now have tax problems b/c they listed the bribe as a “charitable donation to the fake foundation”
They even got written letters in return that said, “Thank you for your generous donation.”
To make the bribes appear legitimate they received receipts falsely indicating that “no goods or services were
exchanged” for their supposed donations to the foundation, according to authorities.
Loughlin and her husband allegedly hid their payments in two $200,000 wire transfers to the “charity” to get their daughters into USC.
There’s the not insignificant matter of taxes......and using the US mail to facilitate the fraud also comes with legal penalties.....as do wire-transfers.
