Actress Felicity Huffman has been released from her minimum security prison after serving only 11 days of her already short 14 day prison sentence. As The Daily Mail reports:
Felicity Huffman is a free woman.
The 56-year-old actress was released from the Federal Correction Institution in Dublin, California on Thursday according to a spokesperson for the Federal Bureau of Prisons.
Huffman’s release came less than two weeks into her 14-day sentence after she entered a guilty plea to a charge of conspiracy to commit mail fraud.
She will now spend a year on probation for paying $15,000 for a proctor to falsify her daughter’s standardized aptitude test in order to get the teen a higher score.
The incredibly short sentence highlights an American justice system that many claim is rigged to favor the wealthy and famous.
