Felicity Huffman’s longtime friend David Mamet addresses bribery case in open letter
Felicity Huffman was arrested over her alleged involvement in a college admissions bribery case.
‘Harvard was once sued for restricting the admission of qualified Jews; a contest currently being waged by Asians.’ ‘I do not see the difference between getting a kid into school by bribing the Building Committee, and by bribing someone else. But, apparently, the second is against the Law. So be it.’The colleges themselves are not alleged to have been involved in this case and the indictment says that most of the children allegedly involved had no knowledge.
