Karen Littlefair of Newport Beach admits paying $9,000 to have someone take her son’s online courses at Georgetown and gets five weeks in prison.
A Newport Beach socialite who admitted paying $9,000 for a conspirator to take her son’s online courses at Georgetown University was sentenced Wednesday to five weeks in prison.
Singer, who pleaded guilty to four felonies last March, has yet to be sentenced. The case’s highest-wattage defendants In exchange for $9,000, Singer’s employees completed four courses in Littlefair’s son’s name. When Singer billed her $3,000 for one of the classes, Littlefair requested a discount, saying, “The grade was a C and the experience was a nightmare.”Littlefair’s lawyer, Kenneth B. Julian, asked Burroughs to spare his client prison and punish her instead with probation. Her son has resigned from his “ideal job” at the U.S.
Julian said there is “zero evidence” that Littlefair knew of or took part in the cheating. He noted the government chose not to charge Littlefair with the offense, yet raised it to argue for a longer sentence. “It should not be the tail that wags the dog,” he wrote.Yet Littlefair’s uncharged crimes weren’t limited to cheating on the ACT, Rosen wrote.
