Lori Loughlin, The “Full House” actress, reported to a California federal prison to begin serving her two-month sentence. Loughlin is serving time for her role in the college bribery scandal in 2019. The federal prosecutor’s office in Boston said Loughlin was processed in the federal prison in Dublin, California.
The parties recently agreed the defendant could report to prison no later than Nov. 19. Another agreement was during her two-month sentence, she will not get an early release from prison as inmates with a sentence under a year get time cut off, the prosecutor said in a statement.
Loughlin was sentenced in August to two months while her husband, fashion designer Mossimo Giannulli, received a longer sentence. Giannulli has to serve five months in prison. Giannulli and Loughlin were among 57 individuals caught in a college admission scandal. Loughlin and Giannulli paid half a million dollars in bribes to get their two daughters admitted to the University of Southern California as part of the rowing team.
The actress will pay a fine of $150,000 and perform 100 hours of community service upon her release from prison. As for Giannulli, he will pay a fine of $250,000 and perform 250 hours of community service after his sentence is completed. However, Giannulli has not yet surrendered and has until Nov. 19 to do so.
