USC coach who made fake crew profile for Lori Loughlin’s daughter agrees to plead guilty

Two days later, Singer emailed Giannulli to request an “action picture,” the complaint states. On July 28, Giannulli sent an email, copying Loughlin, with a photo of their younger daughter on an ergometer, the rowing machine.

In addition, prosecutors said Janke and Ali Khosroshahin, the head coach of USC women’s soccer, designated four students as recruits to the team to facilitate their entrance even though the students did not play competitive soccer. In exchange, Singer directed payments totaling about $350,000 to a private soccer club controlled by Janke and Khosroshahin, according to the indictment.

Khosroshahin has pleaded not guilty to the conspiracy charge.

Separately, the US Attorney’s office also announced Tuesday that Toby MacFarlane, a former senior executive at a title insurance company, will plead guilty to one count of conspiracy to commit fraud.

MacFarlane paid $450,000 in bribes to get his daughter into USC as a fake soccer recruit and his son in as a purported basketball recruit, according to court documents.

What the plea agreements say

As part of her plea agreement, Janke has been given a sentencing recommendation of incarceration at the low end of the federal guidelines, a fine within the sentencing guidelines, 12 months of supervised release, restitution of an amount to be determined by the court, and forfeiture of funds the court determines she derived from her offense.

MacFarlane has been given a sentencing recommendation of 15 months incarceration as part of his plea agreement. He also received a penalty of $95,000, 12 months supervised release, a $100 assessment payment, restitution of an amount to be determined by the court, and forfeiture of any claims to vehicles, currency, or personal property seized by the government or local law enforcement during the course of the investigation.

Both MacFarlane and Janke must also cooperate with the Examination and Collection division of the IRS by giving financial information and make a good faith effort to pay all delinquent taxes. Both must also cooperate with the government’s investigation and agree not to dispute the accuracy of facts alleged.

No further criminal charges will be brought against MacFarlane and Janke in connection to the college admissions scandal, according to their plea agreements. If either MacFarlane or Janke breach their plea agreements, they could be released from it.
