BOSTON (WBZ NewsRadio) — Actress Lori Loughlin and her fashion designer husband, Mossimo Giannulli, accused federal prosecutors of withholding evidence in the college admissions scandal case.
Loughlin and Giannulli said they did not know their payments to the University of Southern California were bribes, and thought it was a legal donation to the school.
The couple claims the federal prosecutors are withholding evidence that proves this.
Attorneys for the couple filed the claim on Friday in Boston federal court, saying a judge was “urgently needed” to intervene in the case.
Loughlin and Giannulli are accused of paying $500,000 in bribes to the scheme’s mastermind, Rick Singer, to get their daughters into the university. They pleaded not guilty to the charges this past spring.
