to several felonies and is cooperating with prosecutors in their cases against his alleged accomplices. He awaits sentencing.
Prosecutors had argued in court filings that even in a case marked by the greed and entitlement of exceptionally rich and privileged families, Huneeus stood out for his brazen, unabashed foray into the scam and his efforts to avail himself of all of Singer’s illegal offerings. Instead of taking the exam at the tony Bay Area private school she attended, she flew down with her dad to West Hollywood, where Singer had the director of a school on his payroll. She was met there by another Singer accomplice,who coached the girl through the exam and corrected her incorrect answers. Singer charged Huneeus $50,000 for the service and paid $10,000 each to Riddell and the school director.
“Walk me through the whole, kinda, water polo thing again and how it works,” Huneeus said to Singer in a recorded phone call in August 2018. “Like the economics, the timing, how all that works.” In arguing for a light sentence, lawyers for Huneeus emphasized in a court filing that Huneeus’ daughter did not enroll at USC and, so, did not end up taking a spot at the selective school from a more deserving applicant.
On the same day Huneeus learned his fate, California Gov. Gavin Newsom signed three bills in response to the college admissions scandal, including a mandate that any “admission by exception” to the state’s many public campuses be approved by multiple university administrators.
He can show the other prisoners how to make wine with spoiled fruit and a black plastic trash bag.
Such a white....errrr.....light sentence.
