A Los Angeles businessman gets sentenced to 4 months in prison for paying $400,000 to get his son into Georgetown Univ. as a fake tennis recruit.
BOSTON — A Los Angeles businessman was sentenced Thursday to four months in prison for paying $400,000 to get his son into Georgetown University as a fake tennis recruit.
Semprevivo was also sentenced to two years of supervised release, 500 hours of community service, a fine of $100,000 and possible restitution to Georgetown to be decided later. He was accused of paying $400,000 to a sham charity operated by Singer in 2016. Authorities say Singer then bribed Georgetown tennis coach Gordon Ernst to label Semprevivo's son and the children of other Singer clients as recruited athletes. Singer has pleaded guilty to federal charges. Ernst, who was fired by Georgetown, pleaded not guilty.
"Semprevivo defrauded Georgetown, and then sought to hold Georgetown accountable for not discovering his fraud," prosecutors wrote in a Sept. 19 court document."Semprevivo wants credit for contrition and acceptance of responsibility, but he exhibits neither."
