Huffman, Gregory and Marcia Abbott, Jane Buckingham, Gordon Caplan, Robert Flaxman, Agustin Huneeus Jr., Marjorie Klapper, Peter Jan Sartorio, Stephen Semprevivo and Devin Sloane were all charged with one count of conspiracy to commit mail fraud and honest services mail fraud and have agreed to plead guilty, prosecutors said.
Read More"I am in full acceptance of my guilt, and with deep regret and shame over what I have done, I accept full responsibility for my actions and will accept the consequences that stem from those actions," she said in a statement. "I am ashamed of the pain I have caused my daughter, my family, my friends, my colleagues and the educational community.

Huffman will probably get a fine and a walk. Laughlin on the other hand will probably get the chair (figuratively of course) a judge sees her behavior walking as if on the red carpet and signing autographs. Doesn’t go to the innocent. More to the pompous and careless.
No fines just jail. Send a real message.
Lorie Loughlin and Trump supporting husband didn't plead guilty. Now they face additional charges of Money Laundering and increased jail time. Laughing and signing autographs while walking to court won't help with sentencing and claiming remorse. The MAGA Mantra: Everyone Cheats!
The 'Dirty Dozen'...
Bye, Felicia !
what of the institutions ...
Every last one of them should go to jail. If the average person would've committted these crimes , they would be going to jail with no questions asked. Money and privilege when abused sets a bad example.GODIRECTLYTOJAIL
Ashamed that they were caught

Was she the good mother in Transamerica and got an Oscar....?
No jail time. Already pilloried in the press.
Ashamed they got caught.
The bigger question is: Is Huffman ashamed of what she did? Or, is she REALLY ashamed because she got caught? Because, SMART people know that if she had not got caught, she would NEVER expose herself; nor would she had made things right on her own!
Lock her Up Felony Huffman
Ashamed she got caught.
As she should be, but WHY is no one talking about those people who ACCEPTED the bribes! Why are they not being put in the public eye and brought to justice too!!!
Ashamed.......because she got caught.
It was wrong and she'll pay for it. But smarter to take responsibility than be stupid like Lori Laughlin and plead not guilty. Her sentence will be worse. Huffman's marriage will suffer. But depending on how things go, she may be able to salvage hers with time and counseling.
Your ashamed because you got caught so how come you weren’t ashamed beforehand. Say bye bye to you career
She’s only embarrassed she got caught for it, and for her miserable parenting skills. God forbid her children actually earn their way rather than having parents purchase it
The one who accepted the money is guilty too...
Dear USA. I think you have bigger fish to fry with the sitting racist president who does nothing for gun control. What she did was stupid and she’s probably ruined her child’s education. She’s not a murder or rapist. She did something stupid. Haven’t we all done things we regret?
That's part of the deal to get probation
Criminal. Why haven't you used a mugshot
Of course they’ll pay a fine. Why would their outcome be any worse than the pres was with trump u? Now that would be hypocritical...
C’mon people really? I don’t get why this is such a big surprise. People who have large sums of capital that can contribute to the success of a good school and all they have to do is give my kid admission? I thought this to be the norm, not the exception.
As she should be. It’s easy to be contrite after the fact. She embarks herself and did massive damage to her kids psyche... a total failure. I hope she gets a good therapist because what she did to her child is unthinkable.
GEEZ MONEY CNT BUY MORALS CAN IT Saw clip where some said their children didn't know what parents were doing HELLO students knew they weren't their scores on test AND knew when pose in pics wearing sport attire THEY never played that sport
Ashamed she was caught.
All kids, no matter if they knew or not need to be expelled and/or degrees rescinded. No exceptions!
It was wrong and she'll pay for it. But smarter to take responsibility than be stupid like Lori Laughlin and pleas not guilty. Her sentence will be worse. Huffman's marriage will suffer. But depending on how things go, she may be able to salvage hers with time and counseling.
Not ashamed but embarrassed and bitter because she got caught 🤷🏽♀️
Ashamed because you were exposed please donate so many students out there who can't afford tuition
Is education getting too competitive nowadays? Is this why these parents feel the need to pay to get their children into college? 🤔
Apparently, the kids didn't even excel in the sports in which the University specialised, but used them as props for promoting their social media profiles. They should hand over all such profits as fines.
she's 'ashamed' because she got caught, otherwise she would have no regrets
It's going to be probation for all. I would honestly be surprised if anyone did jail time for this yet another egregious example of white collar crime being 'white washed.'
the richs can always find a way beyond our imagination.
She's only sorry and embarrassed because she was caught. Hope the judge makes her cover all college expenses for several young people....say around twenty.
She’s ashamed she got caught
Where are all the feminists, have you started boycotting her movies?
She’s ‘ashamed’ now that she got caught. If she was truly ‘ashamed’ would not have done it in the first place.
Lots of deserving kids could use your $$$ to help pay for their college.
Hopefully this won’t turn into another Smollett story
Not ashamed enough to not do it
If only she was ashamed that her immense wealth once against will let her avoid any real consequences and pledged to fight against the system that enables the ability of people like herself such advantage over others.
I’m sure there’ll be lots of time to work through those feelings of shame in jail, right?
FelicityHuffm14. You were not ashamed while doing it. You're embrassed cause you got caught and put on blast.
'Ashamed'... Ha! Nice acting. !👍
Non capisco cosa intenda ?”
These people should make significant donations for scholarships to less fortunate kids and that would be a start! At least there’s an admission of guilt.
She a liberal...she’s only ashamed because she was caught!
This is a shameful thing she has done and her child will pay the price forever.
The pressure is on Aunt Becky
Ashamed we all found out.
She should be
They belong in jail and their kids removed from the schools immediately. But now that ain’t gonna happen is it. Sad world we live in.
Why are the always ashamed and remorseful after they get caught? If they felt that while doing the act and they were sincere, if never would have happened.🙄👎
Ashamed they got CAUGHT!!!
She‘s probably gonna do it again if there was a younger child in the picture. Definitely just ashamed（of getting caught）!
She’s only ashamed because she got caught!
Shame is useless. I hope she gets to remorse one day
They have turned the lights out, Felicity FelicityHuffman CollegeAdmissionsScandal
I’m pretty sure they feel so guilty that they have good lawyers trying to get them off.
These are the people that called realDonaldTrump unprintable names yet they are so corrupt. Terrible
And it was that “ shame “ that made her turn herself in.....nope
“ Show me the money. “
That is a good step
Ashamed she got caught
jail time.....😒
Hope you learned your lesson, ma'am.
If Felicity deserves 20 years for a $15K bribe, give Laughlin 60 years. And Manafort should have about 1200 years.
While what they did is shameful, I don't see how it rises to the level of 20 years maximum sentance wouldn't most people do the same for their kids if they had the money? Paul Manafort betrays his country and gets 47 months...
Brave enough to admit her mistake. Cheers to that. We’re only human born to make mistakes
I will give her credit for at least not wasting the court’s time by pleading guilt and taking responsibility. The others?
Will never support this cheat again........... she should be boycotted
You get no credit for being ashame go to jail like every Poor person of color ...
Maybe put some effort into something good for the people...
Real pc of shit
Does this mean Aunt Becky is gonna fight her case?
Only because they were caught and have to say it to help with their plea deals.
Jail lunatic!
Yeah, I'd be ashamed too if my kid was so flipping stupid I had to commit fraud to get them into college while crushing dreams of intelligent students. I guess the kid's natural abilities don't fall far from the rotten apple tree. What loser her and the other kids are!
They should of asked for a change of Venue.....say like oh I don’t know maybe Cook County
ejleven What happened to the Florida girl who was caught by the testing board of cheating earlier this year? How did the testing board not catch this 400-point difference? I suppose one must be able to pay to play!
Well if you are a potato, you must be a potato.
So... six months of house arrest and a fine.
Ashamed she got busted. If she was ashamed about the act, she would be the whistleblower.
I wonder if she felt shame when no one else knew about it. Did it eat at her or is the shame only now that she’s embarrassed?
Elitists gotta elite.
The laws are written to keep the less fortunate in their place. The rich took advantage of the lessor people, who will no longer be able to work. Career over. Guess who goes to jail!
A lot less fortunate people do this. No big deal. They might get some jail time I’ve read somewhere. Lmao!
Dumbocrats
Her statement is pretty much as good as it gets as far as accepting responsibility is concerned. Sure, it's too late, but that's the case for everybody that gets caught. Not everyone accepts responsibility and the consequences.
Is her husband ashamed as well?
is this 'mail fraud' thingy what we call corruption back here in Africa... cause damn ya'll make it sound so good... mmmmh 'mail fraud'... sounds like when someone used someone else's mailbox instead of theirs... we could use that here... mailbox fraud.... sounds so cool
At least she is pleading guilty and admitting wrong-doing, unlike most in current administration.
...ashamed she got caught
Ashamed because she got caught! Where were her values before her actions. Such a role model 😔
Make the guilty parties work in the res cafeteria for 4 years
Only because she got caught, knock it off🤨‼️
heartstring1111 Ashamed? Prove it. Sponsor 10 underprivileged students and cover 4 years of tuition for each. Start with that and we'll see how it goes.
She's ashamed now because she got caught. Remember that.
Pity there wasn’t this much outrage when tRump defrauded Trump University applicants.
The self righteous indignation expressed by many commenters is only to be expected, if they could, would they do the same for their own children, remember Trumps daddy got him out of the Vietnam draft, wealth dictates the way democracy works, stop deluding yourselves
Ashamed she got caught. I really liked her, too.
Lock em' up. What's good for the goose is good for the gander.
Why can’t they catch some real criminals, like trump
She will probably get less jail time then everyone else....
Really!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Wow some liberal democrats taking extreme ownership of corruption.
People this has been going on for generations. The fact that it’s making so much noise now is annoying. How about we actually convict killers. This is so lame
She’s just as ashamed as Donald Trump is every time he opens his mouth.
What’s the plea deal? And who did you flip on?
disgusting. you are only apologizing because you got caught and it might lesson your court penalties. If you hadn't got caught, you wouldn't be feeling so bad and 'taking it around for the rest of your life'. You enable Trump, you break laws, and you are a bad person.
Career gone. Real stupid move on her part. I'll bet her husband didn't even know. Don't see him around. Can't blame him. Totally embarrassing. Now she has to look her daughter in the face. Wow
If you are truly sorry, why didn’t you come clean before you were caught?
Yeah, 'in full acceptance of her guilt' and 'accept full responsibility' as long as there's no jail time, limited probation, and little to no oversight of any other penalties being floated around. More Hollywood privilege on parade.
She’s ashamed she got caught
speaking of fraud, this is my brother's project ❤️
You’re only ashamed because you got caught. To late for saying youre ashamed.

Not ashamed enough to not ensure she’s got that solid plea deal locked down eh? Pathetic!
Ashamed she got away with it.
Ashamed she was caught
A greater number of people would have been involved in the college admission scandal if they had the money. Their “morality” is born out by not being rich. No one talks about this.
'Orange is the New Black' just became a reality series.
Wasn't ashamed until she got caught
Greed
She is not ASHAMED !!! If she had a conscious she would not have done it. The only thing she is ashamed of is getting caught. She thought she was above the law!
You weren’t ashamed until you got caught.
Only ashamed because you got caught!
Ashamed you got caught
You’re ashamed you GOT CAUGHT!
Ashamed she got caught ....
Please donate to other students so they can go to school! Find a child who needs their tuition paid for! Do something more than an I’m sorry! This was a good apology.
A liberal who is ashamed ! Should be millions more like her !
Don't worry lady . You're an actress. That makes you special. Hell , black actors get off Scott free !
I do not believe for one minute that the kids of these 13 ‘parents’ did not know about the cheating.
How deeply ashamed and sorry would she have been if they all didn’t get caught-“pigs”
Sure she is.
I doubt any of them will serve jail time.
I truly believe that she is sincere. I don't think she should do anytime. Maybe, a hefty fine and a lot of community service. Lori Laughlin is a different story. That whole family went over and beyond conniving and cheating.
Lori Loughlin thinks its all a big joke - bet she wont plead quilty - she'll use a high power lawyer ot get her off.
Liberal hypocrite.
Apologies like these are so disingenuous.. She got caught in her crime🙄& enough of her money didnt keep her untouched🤷🏽♀️The fact that she said her daughter knew absolutely nothing means she knew just don’t want her in a cell next to her💅🏽🤷🏽♀️ ByeFelicity ByeFelicia
I would pay anything to get my kids in to a great school! Don’t be ashamed!
Uh....How did her daughter know 'absolutely nothing about my actions' when she paid for SOMEONE ELSE to take her entrance exams? Her daughter didnt take her own tests...so she was clearly aware of her mom's scam.
Was she “ashamed” before she got caught, or “ashamed” that she got caught?
Only because she got caught. No excuse for her.
Thick kids
She should be ashamed.
Her restitution should be to pay for 10 needy, qualified kids to get through Stanford - with a masters. That and jail time. Maybe walk the streets a'la game of thrones naked with people shouting 'shame, shame'. Oh, and shaving her head of course.
Amazing...this epiphany of being ashamed etc, should’ve been recognized BEFORE she wrote the checks...
It doesn't matter if she and Lori take a plea deal. You are going to jail. DO NOT pass Go, DO NOT collect $200
Still, she should spend some time in jail.
She should be ashamed...
Garbage. Drop dead.
How about the indebted generation with 1.5 $Trillion debts from overpriced colleges? Anyone being fined for that scandal?
And so she should be!
This is what am apology sounds like. Maybe I’m being duped but this apology sounds sincere and is in stark contrast with other “apologies” that I have heard recently. She should feel shame.
more like ashamed she got caught. If you’re that stupid rich, you could have easily just hired the best tutors. slimymoves
No, she's embarrassed that she got caught.
She's upset she got caught.
No utterance of “ashamed” until now?
I always laugh when people say they're 'ashamed' after they get caught. She was probably congratulating herself before, thinking she was slick.
They should all go to prison but won't.....
So that's all it takes saying oh I'm so ashamed, paying a lawyer a few hundred thousand and you end up with a slap on the wrist, justice is done 🙄
So abt who else do those defendants plan to volunteer information ..? Because the people who were bright enough to be admitted but who were shoved aside for her underachieving rich kids & those of her cronies don't get their lives back nor another chance at those opportunities.
She is ashamed that she got caught.
Lock her up!!!👍🏾
Dies it matter? No jail time, just like the rest of “White” collar crimes. Law & Order my ass...........
That statement is beautifully written
Hopefully the 12 of them do some time.
Ashamed is nice, but that won’t get it. Ashamed cause you were caught..if not, you would still be happy ...jail time!!!
She’s sorry she was caught. 🙄
If Martha Stewart can go to the slammer, then poor little Felicity should follow.
Nothing New - Hey did you see that $650 million dollar plot up in Beverly Hills? Watching to see who buys that...
She's only sorry she got caught... and that it has cost her money. no tears here.
They are just ashamed they got caught .
Penalty should be for them to pay full college tuition of the students they displaced by cheating. And stand in front of the school with a sign that says 'I screwed your child out of their future because my child wasn't smart enough to get in but I had more money.'
maybe they will all establish college scholarships for those without advantages... NotQuiteTHATRemorseful
Don’t believe that these children were unaware of these criminal machinations. It’s impossible that they aren’t complicit. Their children should be implicated and charged as well.
Ashamed that she got caught.
You cheated not only the game, but yourself. You didn't grow. You didn't improve. You took a shortcut and gained nothing. You experienced a hollow victory. It's sad that you don't know the difference.
parents have always been scheming, buying and doing whatever they can to get their kids into colleges. whether it's a 'legacy', a someone-who-knows-someone, or a big, fat check, it's been going on forever. if it weren't for the famous involved, we'd never know about it.
😢 And I mean that honestly, as a mom. Her statement is 💯.
Put her in jail.
Not good enough
Ashamed!(of getting caught)
Had she been a Trumper she would’ve Skated!
Publicly ashamed. Privately still entitled. Tigers cannot change their stripes.
She's ashamed she got caught!!!!!!
Lmao ashamed😂😂😂 only way to get these 1% is by humiliation , we would have never ever known this woman if she wasn’t caught and humiliated by the media
'I'm ashamed i got caught but if no one was the wiser i would gladly wear my family's ill gotten gains with an outward sense of pride to rival an Olympic medalist's mother. Meanwhile, i have so little faith in my child, i need to lie & cheat to get them the 'proper' education.'
She feels shame after she was caught. No shame felt when she was writing those checks.
The only reason why your ashamed is because you got CAUGHT........
Note how they're focusing on her way more than her husband. He was in on it too and I see almost no headlines plastering his name everywhere. I'm not saying she's not deserving of her treatment but I think her hubby is getting off light.
'Let me get my checkbook.'
She’s ashamed. How precious. So, what are you gonna do to help change the system, Felicity?
I wondered if they would have been ashamed had they not been caught...Just utterly BS!
So you should be, now take your punishment.
Too little to late ! Some people in this world think that money can buy all....it can't buy class and respect!
Deals made
I’m glad she owned up to her crime. Let’s see if the consequences don’t take into consideration that she’s a rich actress.
What trouble did these colleges get in?
She's ashamed she wasn't clever enough not to get caught.
Ship her to Siberia.......gulag😁
❤️
She's ashamed she got caught, 1%ers don't abide by the rules they want rest of society to abide by
It’s amazing how corrupt and fraudulent the Democratic Party became under obama. The way, way worst of it is yet to come.
Boohoo😆😆😆
WTF. Ever!!😂
Racailles
I think all the guilty ones should be required to spend the same amount in donations to those unable to afford tuition.
Statement from Felicity Huffman:
meanwhile people believe realDonaldTrump got into college on his own merits.
Until they get the illegals out of our colleges there should be no charges. They were doing the same as the illegal aliens, trying to get the kids in good colleges.
SHE SHOULD BE!
Nah. She’s embarrassed because she got caught.
Don’t be ashamed. Just don’t do it. Don’t you want your kids to get into college on their own merit. Also, you’re only ashamed because you got caught.
Hmm
guillotine pls judge
As she should be
Only ashamed cause she got caught! 😬😂
Only ashamed since she got caught.
