1205 Framed for Fame: John Wilson’s Battle Against the DOJ’s Varsity Blues Witch Hunt
In 2019, the Varsity Blues scandal shocked the nation, exposing a college admissions scheme fueled by wealth and privilege. But beneath the headlines lies a hidden story: John B. Wilson, a father falsely accused of bribery, became a scapegoat in a DOJ-orchestrated media circus. Despite no evidence of bribes, Wilson faced a brutal six-year battle against the Department of Justice, USC, and Netflix’s distorted narrative. Exonerated on core charges, he now reveals the scandal within the scandal—how prosecutors manipulated evidence for fame and institutions shielded their interests. Join us for a gripping tale of injustice and one man’s fight for truth.
GUEST: John B. Wilson, author of Varsity Blues: The Scandal Within the Scandal, rose from a challenging childhood marked by poverty and an abusive mother to earn degrees from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute and Harvard Business School, graduating at 23 as the youngest in his class. A trailblazing business leader, he became Bain & Company’s youngest partner, helped Staples join the Fortune 500, and nserved as Gap Inc.’s COO during its $50 billion peak. Falsely accused in the 2019 Varsity Blues scandal, Wilson fought a six-year legal battle, exposing DOJ misconduct and media manipulation. Exonerated, he now advocates for justice system reform.
