Lori Loughlin was taken to a prison in California to start her two-month sentence after pleading guilty in the nationwide college admissions scandal.
The Full
House alum, 55, surrendered herself to the Federal Correctional Institution in
Dublin, California, near San Francisco on Friday, October 30th.
The actress
pleaded guilty to fraud earlier this year after paying $500,000 to get their
two daughters, daughters, Bella, 21, and Olivia Jade, 20, into the University
of Southern California as fake crew team recruits.
She was
sentenced in August to two months in prison, two years of supervised release
with 100 hours of community service, and a $150,000 fine.
Her husband,
Mossimo Giannulli, who was also involved was sentenced to five months in prison
and is expected to report to prison by November 19. His deal included two years
of supervised release, 250 hours of community service, and a $250,000 fine.
“Lori and
Moss don’t want to serve their prison sentences at the same time. Among the
reasons, even though their daughters are adults, Lori wants one parent to be
free to provide emotional support to the girls,” the insider explained. “Lori’s
concern all along has been Isabella and Olivia Jade.”
Actress,
Felicity Huffman also took part in the scheme, that was masterminded by Rick
Singer. She was sentenced to two weeks in prison.
