A personal text message reveals the terrifying moment authorities pounced on a former comedy-drama television star suspected of involvement in a college admissions scandal.

Former “Desperate Housewives” star Felicity Huffman, 56, sent a series of emotional text messages to friend and fellow former cast member Vanessa Williams, also 56, shortly after being arrested back in March. Huffman had allegedly made a “charitable contribution” to improve her daughter Sofia’s chances of gaining admission to selective colleges and universities like Yale University, Georgetown University, and Stanford University.
