BOSTON - Federal prosecutors plan to ask a judge Wednesday for more than a year in prison for a former Stanford sailing coach who admitted to accepting bribes in the college admissions cheating scheme. Among those charged are actresses Felicity Huffman and Lori Loughlin as well as Loughlin’s fashion designer husband Mossimo Giannulli. Prosecutors are seeking 13 months behind bars, saying such a sentence is necessary to help restore confidence in a college admissions system that many believe is rigged in favour of the rich. Vandemoer’s lawyers will urge the judge for no prison time, noting that he accepted responsibility and didn’t pocket any of the money for himself. They say Vandemoer was seeking only to “help the sailing program he loved.”ARTICLE CONTINUES BELOW
