A husband-and-wife team accused of running one of the nation’s largest online diploma mills has been granted bail, but the couple won’t be spending much time on the Internet while they await trial.
Dixie E. and Steven K. Randock Sr. were indicted this month on charges of fraud and money laundering after federal investigators tagged them as the masterminds behind Saint Regis, Robertstown, and James Monroe Universities—a trio of ersatz institutions that sold degrees to overseas students. As part of the terms of their release, the couple had to agree to limit their Internet use to work related to Ms. Randock’s real-estate business. (Associated Press)
