For parents allegedly taking part in Rick Singer's college admissions cheating scheme, payments for his services usually came in the form of donations to the nonprofit arm of his "private life coaching and college counseling company" — the Key Worldwide Foundation."When families pay for either, either takin' the test or goin' through the side door, all the money goes through my foundation, and then I pay it out to whoever needs to get paid," Singer said to one parent, in a conversation recorded by law enforcement. (The federal complaint identifies the speaker as "CW-1." CNN has confirmed that CW-1 is Singer.)That blunt admission from the California businessman, who pleaded guilty last week in Boston to four federal charges — racketeering conspiracy, money laundering, tax conspiracy and obstruction of justice — shows just how much the foundation corrupted its stated purpose of providing "guidance, encouragement and opportunity to disadvantaged students around the world."A form filed several years ago with the Internal Revenue Service painted a glowing portrait of the foundation's aims, including helping to bring members of the Crips and Bloods — notorious Los Angeles street gangs — to play basketball together and "develop consensus building programs to stop gang violence."But rather than concentrating largely on the less fortunate, the charity allegedly served as a giant piggy bank to collect money from wealthy parents wanting to get their children into schools they may not have been qualified to attend on their own.One aspect of the alleged scheme, according to a federal criminal complaint, went toward bribing college entrance exam administrators and stand-in test takers to help students get better scores on standardized tests. The second part of the effort was allegedly paying off coaches and administrators at top schools to designate some applicants as recruited athletes when, at times, the students may never have even played that sport.Prosecutors said the business owners, executives and celebrities named in the complaint participated in a massive conspiracy. And Singer, who made a deal with prosecutors, laid out how he said it occurred."We would send (parents) a ... receipt stating that they made a donation to our foundation to help underserved kids, which, in fact, was not the case," Singer said. "That was not the reason why they did it."Charity says it helped 'underserved' kidsTax filings for the Key Worldwide Foundation show that it made donations to nonprofit organizations and several schools, some of which had employees who have been implicated in the scheme and charged.While none of its four board members was reported as receiving income through the foundation, filings show the foundation had thousands of dollars in expenses, including travel, administrative and accounting costs. It reported just over million in revenue from 2013 to 2016 and million in spending.A 990 form filed with the IRS for 2013 says Key's contributions to major athletic university programs "may help to provide placement to students that may not have access under normal channels."The form says the foundation, among other efforts, helped to launch a financial literacy project, create a residential summer program for 100 homeless youth living in Southern California shelters and helped fund a program to assist "800 underserved African-American youth for four weeks in each location providing academic, athletic and financial classes to prepare each high school student for college."From 2013 to 2016, the LadyLike Foundation, Friends of Cambodia and Loyola High School in Los Angeles were among those listed as receiving thousands of dollars. CNN reached out to several organizations to see if they actually received the money, but did not hear back.The family that founded the organization Friends of Cambodia in Palo Alto 3882

Federal officials say staff members who worked while sick at multiple long-term care facilities contributed to the spread of COVID-19 among vulnerable elderly in the Seattle area. At least 30 deaths have been linked to Life Care Center in Kirkland, Washington. A report Wednesday from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention provides the most detailed account to date of the outbreak investigation and its findings. Nursing homes in the area are vulnerable because staff have been working with symptoms, working in more than one facility, and sometimes haven’t followed recommendations about controlling infection. The report reads in part:"COVID-19 can spread rapidly in long-term residential care facilities, and persons with chronic underlying medical conditions are at greater risk for COVID-19–associated severe disease and death. Long-term care facilities should take proactive steps to protect the health of residents and preserve the health care workforce by identifying and excluding potentially infected staff members and visitors, ensuring early recognition of potentially infected patients, and implementing appropriate infection control measures."To read the full report, 1209

Flip or Flop, Fixer Upper and Property Brothers are some of the most popular shows on television. They all are based around the same concept: a family gets a home in disarray, completes a major renovation, and either sell it for a big profit, or live in it.Though, perception is sometimes deception.“They’re beautiful homes and everything, but it’s just not reality,” said Travis Tomlinson, owner of Lokal Real Estate.Tomlinson has been buying, flipping and selling homes for years in Northeast Ohio. He even holds classes for people wanting to learn how to get into the business. He said it’s not uncommon to have clients believe they can do more than they should, faster than they should, and end up getting in over their heads.‘It’s kind of flooding the market, actually,” he said. “They get themselves in a real bind because they don’t have the experience and they don’t have the knowledge.”According to Tomlinson, the first mistake most rookie flippers make is overpaying for the property.“If you purchase wrong it’s really hard to make a profit on it,” he said.Marnie Mekruit is a staging professional and works with Staged by L, a local company that stages flipped homes for clients. She said if you overpay right away, you’ll have less money for unforeseen bumps in the road and for important steps like staging.“If you’ve ever done a small home improvement in your house, like refinished your bathroom, you know, it took six months longer than you ever thought it was going to take and it ends up being twice as expensive as you thought it was going to be,” said Mekruit. “Extrapolate that to a whole property and all of the problems that can happen, all the things that come up that you just never plan for, and many people are just not prepared for that.”Professionals note that the timeline of the shows can be a little unrealistic.“They come in with a team of 15 to 20 guys and they're getting done in one day what it takes me maybe a week to do,” said local contractor Curt Yoder.While the flips are beautiful and extravagant, it’s best to start small.“A lot of people maybe go too far on the renovations they plan on doing,” Tomlinson said.Laura Fulton, a staging professional and the owner of Staged by L, echoed his sentiment.“A lot of times what they’ll do is they’ll either under budget or they’ll over improve,” said Fulton.But she said perhaps the biggest misconception on television vs. reality is the profit.“It's not realistic you're going to make that money,” she said. “Maybe in certain areas, California, and other places you can, but for our area, typically, you don't see those kind of profits.” 2636

From San Fran to Cleveland, a California couple never dreamed their Labor Day Weekend visit back home would include actual labor.Alex and Christian Skoch grew up in Cleveland and now call the San Francisco Bay area home. They flew back for a family wedding and tacked on a baby shower as well to celebrate the upcoming birth of their first child. But the baby shower turned into a birthday celebration. Mariella was born 11 weeks early. At 29 weeks, she weighed barely three pounds. She needed help breathing for a bit, but grew stronger by the day, and was discharged after 47 days in the NICU at Cleveland Clinic's Fairview Hospital. “She’ll be three months next week,” said Christian Skoch.Mom and dad said baby girl is doing great.“She's perfectly healthy," Alex Skoch said.We decided it would be best for the baby if we talked with the Skoch family over Facetime since it's cold and flu season. Alex Skoch said she was perfectly healthy throughout her pregnancy; no red flags and she had no idea she was in labor. She said she woke up that morning with some spotting and light cramps. She called her doctor in California who told her it was probably nothing serious, but best to go get checked out."When I showed up at Fairview the laborists said that I was seven centimeters dilated," explained Alex Skoch.She had a cesarean two hours later.“We don't have a great understanding about why all babies are born prematurely,” said Dr. Allison Peluso, Mariella’s neonatologist at Cleveland Clinic.Doctor Peluso said there are known risk factors, but more research is needed. Last year, one in every 10 U.S. babies was born early. It is a troubling rate that's risen for the past four years. It is especially high among African American women; about 50% higher than the preterm birth rate among white women."If you think something feels wrong, or you need extra help, please call your provider," advised Dr. Peluso. Alex Skoch is grateful she did. She also encourages women to listen to their bodies and trust their instincts.“Had I not called the doctor and gone in and gotten evaluated, something worse could've happened,” she said. “I could've been on an airplane going back home!” Home for the holidays has taken on new meaning for the Skoch family.They are grateful for the little things and finding humor in life's unexpected game plan."Later on we're going to remind her she chose to be a Browns fan because she chose to be born here,” laughed Christian Skoch. “There's no getting around that now,” added Alex Skoch.This article was written by Katie Ussin for WEWS. 2585
