As Lori Loughlin and her husband, Mossimo Giannulli, move towards their upcoming trial, new narratives continue to emerge regarding the couple's alleged participation in the college admissions scam. More specifically, a source has now spoken out about the recently-released fake crew resume.

In 2019, Loughlin and Giannulli reportedly paid William "Rick" Singer $500,000 so that their daughters, Olivia Jade and Isabella Rose, could attend the University of Southern California (USC). After the allegations, they were each charged with mail and wire fraud, honest services mail and wire fraud, money laundering, and conspiracy to commit federal programs bribery.

Now, the insider has insisted that the "Fuller House" actress and her husband were not aware of the document's existence prior to its recent release by the prosecution.

According to People, the person close to the couple said that the two "didn't have anything to do with it." Furthermore, they added, "The handwritten part isn't any of their writing. They don't even know enough about crew to know what awards are prestigious or not. They are not capable of falsifying a resume like that because that's not their world."

Even though the prosecution has the document that allegedly shows their part in the admissions scam, previous reports indicated that the "When Calls the Heart" star may not be concerned. Not only does she reportedly believe that she is in possession of a "secret weapon" to prove her innocence, but she is also said to believe withheld evidence could prove that neither she nor Giannulli played any direct role in the scam, known as Operation Varsity Blues.

However, it has also been stated that she has still continued to quietly prepare for her 2020 trial, even though she believes she can prove her lack of involvement. Following a report that advised her defense to take a certain "smart" step as she prepares for a "possible showdown" in court, others have recommended that she face the "consequences" as an attempt to circumvent serving "hard time."
