In other news today, the feds are ramping up their case. She's skeerd.

quote:

Lori Loughlin is reportedly getting scared now that she and her fashion designer husband, Mossimo Giannulli, have been hit with another wave of additional charges related to their part in the college admissions scandal.

After the Justice Department announced Tuesday that the couple, along with nine other parents, were indicted on federal charges related to bribery, a source close to the family says they’re running out of hope.

“They feel like this is David versus Goliath," a source close to Loughlin, 55, told People. "How do you go up against the federal government, when the government has decided to make an example out of you? How can you possibly move forward from this?”

“This stress is about to break them,” the source added.

Her own vanity is partially responsible for this. I'm no fan of the FBI or U.S. Attorneys, but they rarely prosecute public cases like this unless they're airtight.

Imminent jail time will do that to a white girl.

Will she use the "I'm too pretty for jail" defense. We KNOW why the other chick didn't use this defense

Interesting analogy... the Loughlins are the Philistines though.

And y’all are like the militant pro Kaepernick crowd who celebrate white people like Laughlin and Martha Stewart being overly prosecuted

Why? Bribery and tax evasion are serious charges.

Oh well. Do the crime, do the time. She should have taken the plea deal like Felicity Huffmann did.

Personally IDGAF about it and TBH I can't see that there's a victim....the university is getting paid so they're not the victim and the kids get into college (whether or not deserved). Now if someone can show me where a more deserving kid didn't get in bc some rich kids bought their way in, I'll listen.

You'd be pissed if your kid was the last one without a musical chair b/c of some 80's has-been with a rich hubby.

I'm sure there was a long list of them that should have gotten it ahead of hers.

Also, don't forget her writing the bribes off as charitable contributions on her taxes

I can only imagine that her lawyer advised her to plead guilty, and she refused to.
