Felicity Huffman has checked into The Federal Correctional Institution in Dublin, Ca where she will spend the next 14 days locked down according to TMZ reports.
For the next two weeks, life for Felicity Huffman is now going to change drastically. No more designer wardrobes and fancy dinners for the “Desperate Housewives” star.
After checking into prison Felicity will get settled in her cell. Today’s lunch menu consists of a chicken patty, steamed rice, fruit, and drink. While lunch continues to settle for Huffman she can look forward to the evening dinner menu which will offer pepper steak or lentils, steamed rice, green beans, and whole wheat bread.
It is most likely a far cry from what Felicity is used to dining on within the walls of her mansion. However, luckily for Felicity, she will only have to endure just 14 days and nights within bars.
As previously reported Felicity Huffman and Lori Loughlin were33 parents who reportedly paid enormous sums of money to William Rick Singer to help their children cheat on college entrance exams such as the SAT and the ACT, as well as to bribe college coaches to accept their children under false pretenses.
In April, Felicity Huffman along with 13 other parents all entered guilty pleas in a Los Angeles courtroom this morning. Huffman admitted that she paid Rick Singer $15,000 to rig her daughter’s SAT test which allowed her twice the normal amount of time to complete the tests and also allowed the proctor to correct her answers.
Huffman stated, “I am in full acceptance of my guilt, and with deep regret and shame over what I have done, I accept full responsibility for my actions and will accept the consequences that stem from those actions.”
She continues, “I am ashamed of the pain I have caused my daughter, my family, my friends, my colleagues and the educational community.”
Along with serving 14 days in prison, Felicity must also pay a $30k fine, undergo one year of supervised release and 250 hours of community service.
According to TMZ the judge revealed one thing that helped with Felicity Huffman’s case was the fact she had “near immediate acceptance of responsibility” for her crime, and she paid one of the smallest bribes. Felicity in court apologized in court … adding, “I have inflicted more damage (on her daughter) than I could’ve ever imagined.”
As for Lori Laughlin, she has chosen to fight her case, however, Prosecutors will seek a “substantially higher” prison sentence for actress Lori Loughlin if she is convicted. Do you believe Felicity Huffman’s sentencing was fair?
