Reply to comment by Ok_Store_1983 in College admissions scam mastermind sentenced to 3.5 years in federal prison by RaffyGiraffy
He's going to jail because rich families were paying bribes to him, instead of the more traditional forms of bribery like buying a plaque with your name on it for a new building or bench on campus. This doesn't help regular people get into schools, it just makes it more expensive for rich people to buy their way in.
He helped rich people fuck over even richer people, and the institutions can't have that

That's a bingo. Why did Elizabeth Holmes and Sam Bankman-Fried get in so much trouble? Same reason, they scammed dumbass rich people and exposed how dumb they are (though such exposure was not their goal)

Let's hope SBF gets in a lot of trouble. He hasn't been find guilty of anything yet.

Billions of Dollars gone, yeah he's getting some charges. You don't fuck over the real rich people with a B instead of the rich people with M's.

They didn't call it the side door for no reason after all. The back door was already a thing

Literally this. The side door has always been there. It’s not even an open secret it’s basically advertised. He just cut out the institutions and that was where he drew fire.
