Lori Loughlin and Felicity Huffman Arrested for participating in College Admissions Bribery Scandal

Didn't see anybody post on this.

Thoughts?

I think the daughter of a C list actress like Lori Loughlin, being considered a "You Tube star" and having 1.4 million Instagram followers is the real crime here.

She's an "influencer" whatever the flick that is. The internet is a double edged sword.

Of course, nobody has ever bribed their kid's way into a major college before.  It is entirely without precedent in the history of life on earth.

Next up -- people crossing the street against the lights.

I think it's funny & sad in the same instance that Lori Loughlin and her husband spent $500,000 for their kids to go to a school they had no interest in. But, I guess it doesn't matter anymore since they will probably never need to get real jobs.

I think the most annoying, but unsurprising, thing is that Lori will be allowed to travel back to Canada for filming projects. If that doesn't scream rich, white privilege, I don't know what does.

Lori is probably more upset that she paid way more for her scam than Felicity.

I don't think it screams anything other than 1) it's a non-violent crime and 2) As a public figure, she's a very minimal flight risk and in fact as soon as she found out she was "wanted" flew back FROM Canada to turn herself in. She posted $1 million bail. The purpose of bail is to ensure appearance, nothing more. But sure make it about race.

She doesn't have to worry aboout that anymore. Those kids might need jobs someday after all.

Hallmark Channel Cuts Ties With Lori Loughlin Amid College Admissions Scandal

Lori and her husband and children have more money than they’d ever know what to do with. They’ll be fine.

[SmoothLover]

Funny. The first thing I thought when I read about Lori was that the Hallmark Channel would kick her to the curb. It appears I was right. Thank goodness though. She is such a bad actress. The Unfortunate thing for her is that this scandal will be the opening paragraph if her obituary.

How is it unfortunate?  Deserved, methinks.

 

Yes, bribes and donations have been around for a long time - doesn't make it right and shouldn't make is acceptable.  It's also the SCALE on which this happened, with the ringleader making 25 million bucks.

 

Sickening.
