Lori Loughlin and her husband are among 15 parents still fighting charges in the blockbuster 'Varsity Blues' admissions scandal.

BOSTON — Federal prosecutors have asked that actress Lori Loughlin and her fashion designer husband Mossimo Giannulli be among the first group of parents to be tried in the nation's college admissions scandal in October.Loughlin and Giannulli are among 15 parents still fighting charges in the blockbuster"Varsity Blues" admissions scandal. U.S. District Judge Nathaniel Gorton has made clear he wants to divide the parents into smaller groups rather than have them tried all at once.

Rosen also hinted that more parents could choose to plead guilty in deals with prosecutors before trial. A second trial would take place in early 2021, under the government's proposal, and a third would take place in the late spring of 2021 if needed.Loughlin and Giannulli are among 36 parents accused of paying into a vast criminal network led by Rick Singer, a college admissions consultant from California, who took payments in exchange for either tagging their children as fake athletic recruits to get them admitted into elite colleges or fixing their college entrance exam scores.

Lol, the evidence should be overwhelming, either they're delusional or getting really bad legal advice

Sh*t's about to get real - buckle up, buttercup. Start rehearsing your remorse for denying other candidates with legit skills and a commitment to succeed from taking a shot. You deserve some jail time to think that through.

Idiots should have just plead guilty and gotten their punishment..

God never slept the news never slept.

Throw the book at them, they bribed their way into to university spots with their money fraudulently taking an opportunity and a spot away from a hardworking honest student. Absolutely disgusting behavior.

Guilty

Hope they get jail time

How can they fight this when they actually commits the crime? Over and over and over again!!!

Admissions scandal: Mother arrested in Spain and charged with bribing son's way into UCLA to take dealProsecutors and lawyers for Xiaoning Sui, a Chinese mother detained in Madrid on charges of bribing her son's way into UCLA, have proposed she spend no additional time in prison. What I don’t get is why do these rich, connected kids need college since it is who they and their parents are that will get them jobs not their pretend academic credentials. I fought like hell to get accepted into Ucla. This makes me sick. Those at the school who were complicit should be fired forthwith There’s no way the kid was not in on the scam
