Admissions scandal: Feds threaten teens



Prosecutors in the college admissions scandal are trying to pressure parents and force them to plead guilty by threatening to prosecute their children.They've sent letters to some of them warning them that they're under investigation. Prosecutors want to force the parents to plead guilty so their spawn won't end up behind bars, too.

Olivia Jade should probably stop giving her parents the silent treatment. Her mother, Lori Loughlin, and her father who has that Italian name I haven't bothered to learn, might just decide that a couple of years in prison would do their bratty, ungrateful daughter some good.

It happens all the time. Parents urge their children to confess to police or plead guilty to charges they could easily get out of. The parents think they're teaching the kids to respect the law, but all that teaches them is that a criminal record isn't something to avoid.

Lori Loughlin herself has been cheerfully signing autographs and even politely greeting prosecutors.

I'd like to know who the prosecutors are and what colleges they went to. Are they from rich families, trying to keep the nouveau riche out of their alma maters, or are they poor boys trying to get back at the rich kids who looked down on them because they had to work their way through law school.
