A former decorated University of Southern California water polo coach was found guilty Friday of taking hundreds of thousands of dollars in bribes to recruit unqualified students so they could attend the elite institution and a test taker whose role was central to the college admissions scandal was sentenced to four months in prison.
Mark Riddell arrives at federal court in Boston on April 12, 2019. Riddell, a former Florida prep school administrator who took college entrance exams for students in exchange for cash to help wealthy parents get their kids into elite universities, was sentenced to four months in prison Friday.
Between 2011 through February 2019, Riddell conspired with William"Rick" Singer, the alleged mastermind of the scheme, to secretly take college exams in place of students. Authorities said he used fake IDs with the student's name and his picture.
