A judge in actress Lori Loughlin’s college admissions case called allegations made against prosecutors “serious and disturbing.”

U.S. District Judge Nathaniel Gorton claimed the allegations didn’t merit the case being thrown out, but demanded the prosecution address them, according to a report published by People magazine.

“In those notes Singer describes a troubling conversation,” Gorton wrote in a memo Friday, which was obtained by People. “The court considers the allegations in Singer’s October notes to be serious and disturbing. While government agents are permitted to coach cooperating witnesses during the course of an investigation, they are not permitted to suborn the commission of a crime.”

The motion to dismiss was filed by Loughlin’s lawyers last month. The lawyers accused prosecutors of bullying ring leader Rick Singer into lying about Loughlin’s involvement in the college admissions scandal.
