A high-profile Canadian dad who paid $200,000 to cheat his two sons’ way into California colleges — and helped craft a bogus admissions essay claiming one boy had been mugged by an LA street gang — is now headed to prison for three months. The man has also been ordered to pay a $250,000 fine.
David Sidoo, a Vancouver businessman and former Canadian professional football player, was sentenced for paying the hefty sum to college admissions scandal mastermind William “Rick” Singer.
Sidoo, first paid $100,000 to Singer in 2011 to have Harvard-educated test proctor Mark Riddell take the SAT in place of his older son. Sidoo then made another $100,000 payment in 2013 to repeat the scheme the following year for his younger son.
