College Admissions Scandal Update: Prosecutors May Be 'Hinting' At Future Before Lori Loughlin's Trial

As Lori Loughlin moves closer to her upcoming trial pertaining to her alleged involvement in the ongoing college admissions scandal, an expert has revealed why he believes prosecutors made a specific decision regarding one of the "Fuller House" star's daughters.

In 2019, Loughlin and her husband, fashion designer Mossimo 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). Following 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, in the aftermath of the recent release of Olivia Jade's fake college athletic resume, some believe the intentional move may shine a light on what's to come for the YouTuber herself.

According to Deseret News, brand and reputation management expert Eric Schiffer's theory is that the prosecution may be "hinting" that they are also building a case against Olivia as well.

"You know, she may face her own charges," Schiffer said, adding, "I mean, they released that document. Who knows what they're gonna do? To me, that was a clear and present danger signal coming from the prosecution that she may get charged. And it's a message to her parents that if they want to protect their daughter, they better play ball."

This is not the first time that some have speculated whether or not the couple's two daughters could be charged as defendants in the ongoing admissions scam. Additionally, other reports have indicated that the internet personality's unexpected appearance was not only "coached," but also was viewed as a "big betrayal."

As for Loughlin herself, it has been said that she has been taking her own "grueling" steps behind the scenes in order to properly prepare for her upcoming trial. Not only has she reportedly taken a specific step to avoid a certain "challenge," but she has also allegedly worked to "prevent" a conviction.

At this time, some have recommended that the actress face the "consequences" prior to a "possible showdown" in court. However, the TV personality reportedly believes she has a "secret weapon" that will ultimately prove her innocence.
