March 12, 2019 Desperate Housewives vet Felicity Huffman and Fuller House‘s Lori Loughlin are among the 50 individuals indicted for allegedly taking part in a large scheme involving parents who paid bribes of up to $6 million to get their kids into elite colleges, including Harvard and Yale.
Loughlin and husband, Mossimo Giannulli, are accused of paying $500,000 to USC in exchange for having their two daughters designated as recruits to the college's crew team - even though they did not participate in crew - thereby guaranteeing their admission in the college.
The indictment alleges that Felicity Huffman paid $15k to get her daughter’s SAT score up to 1420. Huffman's husband William H. Macy was not indicted.
