The wealthy parents charged in the conspiracy to get their children into elite schools were more than just the 1 percent. Gordon Ernst played hockey and tennis at Brown University, Rollice Ernst said, graduating in 1990 after a semester off in Canada. According to the criminal complaint, Singer told McGlashan that he would portray McGlashan’s son as a kicker — since kickers sometimes get recruited from special camps outside their schools. McGlashan apparently laughed, according to the criminal complaint, which included a portion of their phone-tapped conversation. She has been married since 1997 to actor William H. Macy, who was listed as “spouse” in the criminal complaint but not charged.
