A Los Angeles-based executive who paid $400,000 to get his child into Georgetown University under the guise that he was a tennis recruit was sentenced Thursday to four months in prison, the federal prosecutor in Massachusetts announced.
Stephen Semprevivo had pleaded guilty to conspiracy to commit fraud and was the third parent to be sentenced in the sprawling case that has ensnared more than 50 parents, college coaches and test administrators.The four-month sentence is identical to that given on Tuesday to Devin Sloane, another LA-based executive who paid $250,000 to get his son into the University of Southern California falsely as a water polo player.
But Semprevivo's son did not play tennis competitively.In August 2015, Singer emailed Semprevivo, his wife and their son instructions on what to email Ernst, such as claiming his son was a tennis star.Ernst has pleaded not guilty to conspiracy to commit racketeering.
