The College Admissions Scandal: Ready to Face Their Fate

大学招生丑闻：准备好面对自己的命运

As the Full House actress and herhusband face their upcoming court date, the familyremain 'united' and hopeful for theirfuture: 'they believethey can beat this'

当这位《欢乐满屋》中的女演员和她的丈夫面临即将到来的法庭审判时，这个家庭仍然保持着“团结”，对他们的未来充满希望：“他们相信他们能战胜这一切。”

Charges of mail fraud and money laundering¹ weren't about to put a damper on Lori Loughlin's 55th birthday.

邮件诈骗和洗钱的指控并没有给洛里·洛夫林55岁的生日泼冷水。

Despite facing up to 20 years in prison as part of the massive college admissions cheating scandal, she and her husband, fashion designer J. Mossimo Giannulli, went to church and then gathered with a small group of friends and their two daughters, Isabella Rose, 20, and YouTube star Olivia Jade², 19, to celebrate.

尽管她和她的丈夫、时装设计师J.·莫西莫·吉沃利(J. Mossimo Giannulli)因大规模的大学入学作弊丑闻而面临最高20年的监禁，但他们还是去了教堂，然后和一小群朋友以及他们的两个女儿（20岁的伊莎贝拉·罗斯，19岁的YouTube明星奥利维亚·杰德）聚在一起庆祝。

But that calm, life-as-usual demeanor³ is just a front, say those close to the actress.

但那些与这位女演员关系密切的人士表示，这种平静、一如既往的态度只是一种表象。

A legal source familiar with Loughlin and Giannulli's situation describes the Full House star as panicking behind closed doors as she awaits her fate and a future that could involve decades in prison.

一位熟悉拉夫林和吉沃利处境的法律人士称，这位《欢乐满屋》中的明星在闭门等待自己的命运，她可能要坐几十年牢，内心充满了恐慌。

"Lori is obsessing⁴ over every detail of the case. She's not working, she's not doing anything. She's just reading the files again and again," the source explains.

洛瑞对这个案子的每一个细节都很上心。她没有工作，她什么都没做。她只是一遍又一遍地阅读这些文件。”

"The family was told to remove their Google alerts and to stop searching their names because it's not good for them to see what's being said. But this is a full-time⁵ concern of hers."

“这家人被告知删除他们的谷歌警报，停止搜索他们的名字，因为让他们看到正在说什么对他们不好。但这是她的全职工作。”

The couple's once-charmed life in Beverly Hills was turned upside down March 12 when the U.S. attorney's office in Massachusetts announced it had indicted⁶ Loughlin and Giannulli, 56, in the shocking nationwide scam dubbed⁷ Operation Varsity Blues⁸.

3月12日，马萨诸塞州联邦检察官办公室宣布，已起诉洛夫林和56岁的吉沃利，他们被卷入被称为“大学蓝调行动”(Operation Varsity Blues)的令人震惊的全国性诈骗案中，这对夫妇在比弗利山庄(Beverly Hills)的幸福生活发生了天翻地覆的变化。

The pair and nearly 50 other parents, coaches, exam proctors and admissions counselors⁹ are accused of such actions as paying for boosted SAT scores and lying about students' athletic¹⁰ skills in order to gain them acceptance to elite¹¹ colleges including Yale, Georgetown and Stanford.

这对夫妇以及其他近50名家长、教练、监考官和招生顾问被控花钱提高SAT成绩，并在学生的体育技能上作假，以求他们被耶鲁、乔治敦和斯坦福等名校录取。

Loughlin and Giannulli allegedly paid $500,000 to admissions consultant¹² William "Rick" Singer to falsely designate daughters Olivia and Isabella as recruits to the University of Southern California crew team, though neither actually participated in the sport.

据称，洛夫林和吉沃利向招生顾问威廉·“里克”·辛格支付了50万美元，谎称自己的女儿奥利维亚和伊莎贝拉是南加州大学(University of Southern California)乘员队的新成员，但其实两人都没有真正参加这项运动。

While 14 defendants¹³, including actress Felicity Huffman, agreed to plead guilty in April, Loughlin and Giannulli declined a plea deal.

包括女演员费莉希蒂·霍夫曼(Felicity Huffman)在内的14名被告在4月份同意认罪，而洛夫林和吉沃利拒绝了认罪协议。

"They weren't ready to accept that," says the legal source, who also notes the couple have resisted any deals that would result in jail time.

“他们还没有准备好接受这一点，”这位法律人士说，他还指出，这对夫妇拒绝任何可能导致入狱的交易。
