College coaches and others have been charged in a sweeping admissions bribery case unsealed in federal court.

The racketeering conspiracy charges unveiled Tuesday were brought against the coaches at schools including Wake Forest University, Georgetown and the University of Southern California.

Authorities say the coaches accepted bribes in exchange for admitting students as athletes, regardless of their ability. Prosecutors say parents paid an admissions consultant $25 million from 2011 through Feb. 2019 to bribe coaches and administrators to label their children as recruited athletes to boost their chances of getting into schools.

Prosecutors allege that fake athletic profiles were also made to make students look like strong high school athletes when they actually weren’t. Authorities say the consulting company also bribed administrators of college entrance exams to allow a Florida man to take the tests on behalf of students or replace their answers with his.

Actor Jussie Smollett indicted on 16 felony counts over alleged false report of attackChicago police initially investigated the incident as a possible hate crime but later said Smollett staged the attack, recruiting two brothers to carry it out Bozo loser While it's unlikely maybe just maybe people will think twice about reporting hoaxes and those that buy into them will start using their brains instead of ther emotions. Canada is not immune. We’ve had several fake hate crimes that turned out to be staged hoaxes. Remember the hijab hoax? Or the several graffiti hoaxes? Or the “artifact in the pipeline path” hoax? CO2 is bad? Hoaxes, when not uncovered, are powerful tools to manipulate us.

Jussie Smollett Indicted On 16 Felony CountsThe 'Empire' actor is facing felony charges for allegedly faking a hate crime against himself and reporting it to police. Well he has been falsely pretending to be an actor for years so it’s selfish business as usual I guess. Any bets he gets a longer sentence than Manafort. What a system. What an absolute fool all this in the name of fame, well if you didnt know who he was before, you do now and it's not a good look.
