Parent Douglas Hodge entered his guilty plea in Boston’s federal court Monday after previously pleading not guilty in April.

The four parents join 15 others who have pleaded guilty in the case, while 15 other parents are fighting the charges. They’re also accused of paying to help two of their daughters cheat on college entrance exams a total of four times.
