Felicity Huffman is expected to plead guilty in a Boston courtroom Monday to a fraud conspiracy charge for her role in a brazen test-fixing and bribery scheme that has sent the once-beloved actress’ reputation and career prospects tumbling.

Felicity Huffman exiting federal court in Boston last month. The actress is set to plead guilty Monday to a fraud conspiracy charge.

Singer told investigators he went to Huffman’s home in 2017 and explained to the actress and her husband, the actor William H. Macy, how the scheme worked. Singer told the couple he “controlled” a private school in West Hollywood, where Huffman’s daughter would take the exam; he explained that an accomplice,Huffman and Macy agreed to it, according to a FBI affidavit filed in federal court.

Singer intervened. With Huffman’s help, he explained that the girl was taking the test elsewhere and on a weekend because she didn’t want to miss a school day. “We’re talking about Georgetown,” Macy told him. The couple didn’t know it, but by then, Singer had been apprehended by the FBI. He was cooperating, and had allowed agents to record the conversation with Huffman and Macy.

Lock her up

She’s done herself a lot of good by the way she has handled this. She’s taken responsibility sincerely and humbly. It says a lot about her. And let’s be real. Her $15k payment pales in comparison to the $500k paid by the other actress. I hope her career prospects don’t change.

FelicityHuffman did wrong. Now doing right. Much respect for taking responsibility accepting consequences. An example our nation greatly needs! respect rolemodel manylessonshere dotherightthing

Father pleads guilty to fraud conspiracy in case involving Georgetown admissionsStephen Semprevivo’s plea is the latest in the admissions bribery scandal. Which one is the father? The black man or the while man? Feel for these kids. Have been taught 1. Money can buy almost anything, 2. Honesty is for chumps, 3. They are trophies of their parents' social power, 4. Their parents don't know them enough to place faith in them. HorriblySad Gotta ask. When you’re so rich you can inform Admissions that your child won’t need ANY financial aid, how dumb does the kid have to be that you need to bribe someone to get him/her admitted to a decent university?
