      Federal charges are tough to beat. The conviction rate is >90%. There are no plea deals because the DoJ has an unlimited budget. Even the Singer dude who ran the scams and pled guilty, cooperating with the FBI will go to prison.
      These people who have been charged with felonies will likely serve time. Not a lot of time, but they will go to prison.

    One of the most important parts of the Declaration of Independence is its preamble, and, more specifically, certain phrases contained within the preamble. Life, liberty and the pursuit of Happiness is unarguably of the most famous lines in American history. Jefferson states that everybody is entitled to the pursuit of happiness. It's important to note that the colonists took care in not just saying that every American has the right to happiness, but more specifically the pursuit of it. To Jefferson, this meant that when our government is doing its job right, we as a people are and should be able to find our own happiness in life.
    It's up to us to chase after whatever we desire and make it a reality and the only thing holding us back from pursuing happiness is us.
    Paying to have your test scores boosted, lying about playing a sport you don't play, paying a FAKE non-profit to channel the funds to the person you're paying off for favors......where do you see "donation" in any of these?
    Take that one kid and turn it into thousands of kids who may never go to college and obtain the education they need. Their studying didn't matter. Their diligence didn't matter. Their parents guiding them and motivating them to prepare while their friends are out partying didn't matter. None of it mattered. It's terrible, criminally terrible. Nothing will change until you get mad. ua-cam.com/video/MRuS3dxKK9U/v-deo.html
