Lori Loughlin sentenced to 2 months in prison, husband Mossimo Giannulli sentenced to 5 months for role in college admissions case
Lori Loughlin and her fashion designer husband, Mossimo Giannulli, will serve brief terms in federal prison after they were formally sentenced Friday under the terms of their plea bargains on conspiracy charges in the nation's college admissions scandal, described by the judge as a"breathtaking fraud."
Both sentences were agreed to under the terms of the couple's plea bargains negotiated with federal prosecutors earlier this year. "I deeply regret the harm that my actions have caused my daughters, my wife and others, I take full responsibility for my conduct and I am ready to accept the consequences and move forward with the lessons I've learned from this experience," Giannulli told Gorton, in the only statement either he or his wife have uttered publicly since their arrest last year.
Gorton told Giannulli he was convicted of a crime"motivated by hubris," which he defined as"wanton pride." He said Giannulli has 90 days to surrender to the Bureau of Prisons to begin serving his sentence. As the request of Berkowitz, Gorton said he recommended the bureau select a prison, including Lompoc in California, close to Giannulli's home depending on security requirements.to one count of conspiracy to commit wire fraud and mail fraud, in separate plea agreements with federal prosecutors.On Monday, prosecutors in the case urged the judge to accept the plea deals.
Prosecutors called Giannulli"the more active participant in the scheme," while they said Loughlin"took a less active role, but was nonetheless fully complicit."
