NEW YORK: A former Stanford University coach who was implicated in a wide-ranging college admissions bribery scandal was sentenced on Wednesday to two years of supervised release, a lenient first sentence in a star-studded case.
Vandemoer claimed high school students as recruits for the team, thereby aiding their admission, in exchange for the payments. Lelling, who has led the proceedings linked to the scandal, had recommended a sentence of 13 months in prison and one year of supervised release."We will continue to seek meaningful penalties in these cases," Lelling added in the statement.
Under the scam, which broke in mid-March, parents paid a firm run by Singer to cheat on college entrance exams for their children or to bribe coaches to help non-athletic students get scholarships.
