Actress Lori Loughlin and her husband are claiming that federal prosecutors concealed evidence that could potentially exonerate them in the college admissions scandal, according to ABC News.
In a court filing, Loughlin and fashion designer Mossimo Giannulli reportedly requested “urgently needed†help from a Boston federal judge, and asked that the government be compelled to provide evidence that they say proves they did not bribe a University of Southern California (USC) administrator to ensure their daughters were accepted into the school.
"The Government appears to be concealing exculpatory evidence that helps show that both Defendants believed all of the payments they made would go to USC itself -- for legitimate, university-approved purposes -- or to other legitimate charitable causes,†their attorneys wrote, according to ABC. “The Government’s failure to disclose this information is unacceptable, and this Court should put a stop to it.â€
