JUST IN: Felicity Huffman pleads guilty in college admissions scandal; prosecutors recommend 4 months in prison.

BOSTON — Actress Felicity Huffman tearfully pleaded guilty to federal charges on Monday, admitting that she paid a fixer thousands of dollars to boost her daughter's college admission hopes.

“I didn’t want to give the impression the neuropsychologist knew about this," she said through tears, according to NBC Boston."Everything else they say I did, I did.”Joining Huffman in pleading guilty in a federal courtroom in Boston on Monday was Los Angeles businessman Devin Sloane, who paid $250,000 for his son to be admitted as a phony water polo recruit at the University of Southern California.

"I am ashamed of the pain I have caused my daughter, my family, my friends, my colleagues and the educational community,""I want to apologize to them and, especially, I want to apologize to the students who work hard every day to get into college, and to their parents who make tremendous sacrifices to support their children and do so honestly."
