Judge overseeing Lori Loughlin's college admissions scandal case says he was disturbed by allegations that federal investigators pressured a cooperating witness to entrap parents.
Attorneys for the couple and a group of other defendants asked the judge to dismiss the case, according to newly-obtained court documents. The attorneys cite notes from the scheme's mastermind and government cooperating witness, William"Rick" Singer, in which he says that investigators instructed him to"bend the truth" and"tell a fib" in order to"retrieve responses that are not accurate.
"Without proof of fraudulent intent, the Government’s case falls apart," the court filing by the defendants' lawyers says.
