Sep 13, 2019  •  Post A Comment

Actress Felicity Huffman received her sentence today for her role in what authorities have called the largest college admissions scam ever prosecuted. CNN reports that the former “Desperate Housewives” star was sentenced to serve 14 days behind bars.

Prosecutors had sought a sentence of one month, while Huffman’s attorneys argued for the actress to be given no jail time.

Huffman pleaded guilty to fraud in connection with the case in May. In addition to jail time, she was reportedly given one year of probation, 250 hours of community service and a fine of $30,000.
