1 / 2FILE - In this April 24, 2019 file photo Michael Center, right, former men's tennis coach at the University of Texas at Austin, departs federal court with an unidentified woman after he pled guilty to charges in a nationwide college admissions bribery scandal. Since dozens of wealthy parents and coaches at elite universities were arrested in March, two parents and two coaches, including Center, have agreed to cooperate with authorities.
Among those known to be working with authorities is Laura Janke, the former University of Southern California assistant women's soccer coach who was paid by consultant Rick Singer to create fake athletic profiles to make the children of"Full House" star Loughlin and a slew of other parents look like star athletes, officials say.
Janke agreed in 2017 to create a profile portraying Loughlin's and Giannulli's younger daughter, YouTube star Olivia Jade Giannulli, as a competitive rower, authorities say. The teenager was admitted to USC as a crew recruit even though she didn't play the sport, authorities say. The couple could tell investigators about other school officials or coaches who might have been in on the scheme, experts say. Their testimony could also make it more difficult for parents to argue they didn't know what Singer was doing with their money or were duped by him.
Since dozens of wealthy parents and coaches at elite universities were arrested in March, four defendants have signed cooperation agreements with prosecutors. Singer, along with a former Yale University coach and a man who cheated on entrance exams for students, had already been secretly working with investigators before the charges were announced.
