Huffman admittedly paid an admissions official named William Singer via his nonprofit Key Worldwide Foundation, which authorities said was set up as a front to accept bribes.

‘I broke the law,’ she said following her sentencing. ‘I have admitted that and I pleaded guilty to this crime. There are no excuses or justifications for my actions. Period … I was frightened. I was stupid, and I was so wrong.’

She added: ‘I can promise you that in the months and years to come that I will try and live a more honest life, serve as a better role model for my daughters and family and continue to contribute my time and energies wherever I am needed.’
