Felicity Huffman and Lori Loughlin among 50 charged in college entrance cheating scandal
A large-scale college entry scam is afoot, according to Boston authorities and the FBI, and it includes two of the unlikeliest alleged co-conspirators: Aunt Becky and Lynette Scavo.
Full House actress Lori Loughlin and Felicity Huffman, primarily known for her starring role in Desperate Housewives, are among at least 50 people charged in a college entrance-exam cheating scheme, according to recently unsealed court documents. Per ABC News, the indictment illustrates an alleged scheme that focused on getting students admitted to elite universities by recruiting them for athletic teams (regardless of their athletic abilities and/or experience) and helping potential students cheat on their college exams. Loughlin and Huffman have been charged with conspiracy to commit mail fraud and honest services mail fraud.
