UPDATE: Actress Lori Loughlin Sentenced to 2 Months in College Admissions Scandal
As we previously reported, Lori Loughlin’s husband Mossimo Giannulli was sentenced to five years in prison this Friday for his role in the big college admissions scandal. PEOPLE Magazine noted that as part of his sentence, he‘s also going to have to pay a $250,000 fine and serve 250 hours of community service.
There was no update on Loughlin at the time since his hearing via Zoom took place just hours before she was scheduled to be sentenced. However, new details have just been shared. The Fuller House actress was handed down a two-month federal prison sentence for her crime. She will also pay a $150,000 fine and serve 150 hours of community service.
The two were accused of paying $500,000 to Rick Singer and Key Worldwide Foundation to falsely designate their daughters Olivia Jade Giannulli, 20, and Isabella Rose Giannulli, 21, as recruits to the University of Southern California crew team, although though neither of them ever participated in the sport. Loughlin, 55, eventually confessed to one count of conspiracy to commit wire and mail fraud, and Giannulli, 57, later pleaded guilty to one count of conspiracy to commit wire and mail fraud and one count of honest services wire and mail fraud, PEOPLE notes.
Both originally pleaded not guilty before eventually deciding to take a plea deal.
