Actress Lori Loughlin Is Free After Serving A 2-month Prison Sentence

JAKARTA - Actress Lori Loughlin was declared free from the Federal Penitentiary in Dublin, California after serving a two-month sentence. He was involved in a college admissions bribery scandal.

In May, she and her husband, Mossimo Giannulli admitted to being part of a fraudulent scheme to Facebook their children; Olivia Jade Giannulli and Isabella Rose Giannulli were accepted at the University of Southern California.

After undergoing the trial, the judge said Loughlin would be jailed for two months, pay a fine of 150,000 US dollars and perform public service for 150 hours. Meanwhile, Giannulli, jailed for five months, paid a fine of $ 250,000 and served 250 hours of service.

Lori Loughlin isn't the only actress to do this. Previously, there was Desperate Housewives star, Felicity Huffman who served 11 days in prison in San Francisco for the same case.
