Actress Lori Loughlin and her husband departing the federal court in Boston after a hearing in 2019.
Dressed in a white blouse and a gold pendant necklace, Loughlin apologised through tears during her sentencing hearing for her “awful decision”, saying: “I went along with a plan to give my daughters an unfair advantage.” Giannulli, 57, will serve five months and must surrender the same day as his wife. His sentence included two years of supervised release, a US$250,000 fine and 250 hours of community service.In delivering both punishments Nathaniel Gorton, a federal judge in Boston, accepted their plea deals and followed the prosecution’s sentencing recommendations.
“We can only hope that you will spend the rest of your charmed life… making amends for the system that you have harmed,” he told Loughlin.Friday’s hearings end a legal saga that saw Loughlin and her husband admit to paying US$500,000 to gain admission for their two daughters at the University of Southern California as recruits to the crew team – a sport neither had ever trained in.
The ringleader behind the college admissions scam, William “Rick” Singer, who authorities say was paid about US$25 million to bribe coaches and university administrators, has pleaded guilty and is cooperating with authorities.
