Loughlin, 54, is most famous for portraying the character of Aunt Becky on the television show ‘Full House’

Actress Lori Loughlin, her designer husband, Mossimo Giannulli, and 14 other parents were charged Tuesday in a new indictment in the national college admissions scandal, prosecutors announced.

The 16 defendants were arrested last month and are charged with conspiring with a college consultant, William “Rick” Singer, 58, of Newport Beach, California, and others, to bribe proctors of SAT and ACT college-entrance exams to allow another person to take the test in place of students, or to correct the students’ answers. The scheme also involved bribing coaches and athletic administrators to help get the children accepted at top universities as recruited athletes, prosecutors said.

Keep smiling Aunt Becky 🙄 Disgraceful that Misses Laughlin and Huffman are still lying, indicating their kids knew nothing about the bribery scandal.

Must be a trump phenomonon
