Rudy Meredith, the former Yale women’s soccer coach, admitted in federal court in Boston Thursday to pocketing bribes from parents and pleaded guilty to charges of fraud and conspiracy.
Prosecutors allege that between 2015 and 2018, Singer paid Meredith $860,000 to designate the children of his clients as recruited athletes, regardless of their athletic ability. Meredith was caught in an FBI sting after a father, whose daughter Meredith agreed to recruit in exchange for a bribe, learned he was being investigated for securities fraud and agreed to cooperate with the government, according to court records.
Rosen said the father had been paying Meredith in monthly installments since coming to the agreement in the summer of 2017. Rosen said Thursday that when Meredith was approached by the FBI after the hotel room sting, Singer’s sprawling conspiracy and his network of allegedly suborned coaches “wasn’t on our radar.”
Prosecutors hinted Thursday that more charges could be forthcoming. Wolf asked whether there was a superseding indictment concerning another father, unnamed in court filings, who allegedly paid $1.2 million for Meredith to facilitate his daughter’s admittance to Yale as a recruited soccer player. The student is referred to in court papers as “Yale Applicant 1.”
