Federal prosecutors have sent a letter to a former Stanford student whose parents paid $6.5 million to the mastermind of the college admissions scheme informing her she is a possible target of their investigation, Hannahnfry and MatthewOrmseth report:
Huneeus paid Singer $50,000 to have his daughter’s SAT score inflated in March 2018, prosecutors say, and six months later, the vintner allegedly agreed to pay $250,000 more to have her falsely recruited to USC as a water polo player.
Two months later, Singer called Huneeus at the direction of investigators and said his foundation was being audited by the Internal Revenue Service. He wanted to be sure their stories dovetailed, he told Huneeus, and reminded him to say the $300,000 went not toward a higher SAT score and seat at USC for his daughter, but to “underserved kids.”Advertisementwhich had been mentioned by U.S. Atty.
It is unclear with whom Singer worked within the university. Stanford’s former sailing coach, John Vandemoer, has pleaded guilty to a charge of racketeering conspiracy and admitted in federal court to conspiring with Singer to slip the children of his clients into Stanford.
