LORI LOUGHLIN AND HUSBAND MOSSIMO GIANNULLI STANDS TRIAL FOR FRAUD

After Full House star Lori Loughlin and her husband Mossimo Giannulli took part in a college bribery scheme to get their daughters Olivia Jade and Isabella Rose into a top school, the two are expected to serve out their jail time later this year.
According to the prosecutor, Mossimo paid a total of $850,000 towards bribes from the year 2008 until 2012, towards the University of Southern California and Georgetown University to admit his four children as fake athletic recruits.
The couple along with 50 other parents which one included the actress Felicity Huffman, who paid $15,000 for a proctor to change her daughter Sophia's SAT score, were arrested in March 2019.


During the trial, the couple insisted they thought they were giving money to charity and originally pleaded not guilty.
Afterwards, the couple both signed plea agreements where they accepted to plead guilty to one count of conspiracy to commit fraud and will be the 23rd and 24th parents to do so as part of the case.
One parent, Douglas Hodge was given the harshest sentence of nine months, while others ranged from one day behind bars to a few weeks


Huffman was indeed one of the first to have pleaded guilty and has served a sentence of 14 days in prison last year.
Since the trial, Lori and her husband listed their former Bel-Air home in January this year for $28.65 million but ended up selling it for much less in July, and have recently purchased a $9.5 million home in the Hidden Hills area of Los Angeles. Both of them have also resigned from the exclusive Bel-Air Country Club.
At this time the couple is still not sure when they are planning on moving into their new property, seeing that the couple is still waiting for the next trial date and a judge still has to approve their official sentences.
