Actress Lori Loughlin and her fashion designer husband Mossimo Giannulli both pleaded guilty Friday to charges stemming from the U.S. college admissions scandal.

The FBI and federal prosecutors brought charges against Loughlin and Giannulli nearly a year ago, and their plea agreementsThe couple had previously denied being involved in the college admissions scandal, in which wealthy parents dealt out large bribes in order to get their children accepted to prestigious schools with falsified resumes and test scores.

Loughlin, who is known for her roles on family friendly shows like "Full House" and its reboot "Fuller House," pleaded guilty to one count of conspiracy to commit wire and mail fraud. She agreed with the U.S. attorney's office to be sentenced to two months in prison, a $150,000 fine and 24 months of supervised release that will include 100 hours of community service.

Giannulli's guilty plea included stiffer penalties. He pleaded guilty to one count of conspiracy to commit wire and mail fraud and honest services wire and mail fraud and agreed to serve five months, a $250,000 fine, two years of supervised release and 250 hours of community service. However, U.S. District Judge Nathaniel Gorton could still change their sentences. Both Loughlin and Giannulli's plea agreements include special provisions that allow them to argue during sentencing that there was prosecutorial misconduct during the legal proceedings, and that they received ineffective counsel from their defense team. Earlier this month Gorton refused to a defense request to dismiss charges in the case.

So they end up with a record. Big deal! They knew now is the time to plead as chances are they would not send them-to jail in these times. Quite a deal huh! All in the timing!

maggieNYT Smart move really. Most likely will be able to serve out their sentences at home.

maggieNYT They are in a window for home confinement. They push this out, and that could close.

How stupid are their kids?

Irregardless of the outcome or crime or privilege...Lori’s still got it.

maggieNYT Plead guilty avoid jail time because of COVID. Smart play.

Rich people win again

Lol Tim says buy baba on FM🤣 concast
