Lori Loughlin's argument that she and her husband were tricked into a bribery scheme to get their daughters accepted to college took a blow this week. Prosecutors released photos that Loughlin and her husband allegedly sent to USC to make it look as if their daughters were athletes who were eligible for scholarships. The evidence would seem to undermine Loughlin's claim that she was ignorant of the scheme. Read on for details.

Federal prosecutors have released the photos they say helped Lori Loughlin and Mossimo Giannulli scam their daughters’ way into the University of Southern California.
The photos, part of new court documents filed Wednesday as part of the FBI’s case and obtained by People, show Olivia Jade, now 20, and Isabella Rose, 21, their faces blurred, in workout attire on ERG rowing machines.

Giannulli, 56, emailed Isabella’s photo to the scandal’s mastermind, William “Rick” Singer, on Sept. 7, 2016, prosecutors say in court documents obtained by the outlet.
Giannulli sent the image after Singer told him, “It would probably help to get a picture with her on an ERG in workout clothes like a real athlete too,” according to prosecutors.
Giannulli responded, “Fantastic. Will get all,” prosecutors said.
After Isabella was accepted, prosecutors say Giannulli emailed his financial advisor, “Good news my [older] daughter is in [U]SC bad [news] is I had to work the system,” according to People.
