A Newport Beach woman has agreed to plead guilty to conspiracy to commit wire fraud, admitting she plotted with William “Rick” Singer, the consultant at the center of the college admissions scandal, to have an employee take online classes for her son and submit them to Georgetown.
Littlefair is the 36th parent charged in the admissions scandal by the U.S. attorney’s office in Massachusetts. Beneath the threat of new charges, all but 16 have pleaded guilty. Most of the parents who have maintained their innocence — a group that includes the actress Lori Loughlin and her husband, Mossimo Giannulli, a fashion designer — have been charged with additional felonies and now face charges of conspiracy to commit fraud, money laundering and bribery.
Littlefair, a Newport Beach socialite who has hosted fundraisers for Republicans Jeb Bush and Kevin McCarthy at her Lido Isle home, at one point asked Singer for a discount because his employee had earned her son a C in one course, charging documents say. “The experience was a nightmare!” she wrote in an email.Singer told her he wouldn’t cut the $3,000 price because the “process was a nightmare for all.
