>> Mike: FROM

"DESPERATE HOUSEWIVES" TO THE

BIG HOUSE, ACTRESS FELICITY

HUFFMAN SENTENCED TO JAIL TIME

FOR HER PART BUYING HER

CHILDREN'S WAY INTO PRESTIGIOUS

COLLEGES.

THEY HAVE MORE FROM BOSTON.

MOLLY.

>> HI, MIKE.

NOW SENTENCED TO TWO WEEKS BY A

JUDGE IN BOSTON.

AT ONE OF MOST RECOGNIZABLE

FACES IN THE COLLEGE ADMISSION

SCANDAL BECAME THE FIRST PARENT

TO FACE JUSTICE IN THE CASE.

IN COURT, SHE SOBBED AND

APOLOGIZED TO THE STUDENTS,

PARENTS, AND COLLEGES IMPACTED.

IF SHE DID NOT SPEAK TO THE

THRONG OF MEDIA WAITING OUTSIDE

BUT DID RELEASE A STATEMENT

PROMISING, "I WILL TRY TO LIVE A

HONEST AND MORE OPEN LIFE."

SHE PLED GUILTY TO WINK AT

SPERRY ON FRAUD ACCOUNTS IN

MAINE.

ADMITTING SHE PAID A $15,000 TO

A PHONY SCHEME OF THE

MASTERMIND.

WHO CORRECTED HER DAUGHTER'S

S.A.T. EXAM.

PROSECUTORS CALLED FOR ONE MONTH

IN PRISON AND SHOWED LITTLE

SYMPATHY IN COURT OR HER CLAIMS

OF PARENTING CHALLENGES.

SAYING, MOST PARENTS HAVE A

MORAL COMPASS DO NOT STEP UP THE

LINE IN THE DEFENDED DEAD END.

HUFFMAN'S LAWYERS ARGUED MORE

PROBATION AND THE ULTIMATELY

DETERMINED PRISON TIME WAS

WARRANTED.

SAYING IN ESSENCE, SHE KNEW WHAT

WHEN SHE WAS DOING WAS WRONG AND

THAT WAS A FRAUD.

IT WAS NOT AN IMPULSIVE ACT OF

TRYING TO BE A GOOD MOTHER DOES

NOT ASK USELESS."

ALSO ENTERED GUILTY PLEAS,

BIBLICAL PEACE

BEFORE THE SAME JUDGE, IT'S A

BENCHMARK THEY CAN GO LOOK

THROUGH.

WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO THE PARENTS

MOVING FORWARD TO TRIAL,

INCLUDING LORI KAUFMAN.

DETERMINED BY THE BUREAU OF

PRISONS ON OCTOBER 25TH.

MIKE.

>> Mike: MOLLY, THANK YOU VERY

MUCH.

ALL EYES ARE NOW ON "FULL HOUSE"

START LORI LOUGHMAN AND PLEADED

NOT GUILTY FOR HER ROLE IN THE

COLLEGE ADMISSIONS SCANDAL AND

IS NOW FACING UP TO 40 YEARS IN

PRISON.

THEY ARE HERE TO WEIGH IN,

ROBERT PATILLO AND DEFENSE

ATTORNEY KATIE CHERKASKY.

FELICITY HUFFMAN GETS 14 DAYS IN

PRISON, A SHORT PERIOD OF TIME,

BUT IT STILL PRISON.

WHAT'S YOUR REACTION?

WHAT ARE YOUR EXPECTATIONS?

>> SURE, QUITE WRINKLY, IT

DOESN'T MATTER IF SHE GOT A DAY

IN JAIL OR A YEAR.

BECAUSE HER REPUTATION IS

COMPLETELY RUINED FOR EVERMORE

AND IT'LL APPLY FOR TWO LORI

LOUGHMAN AS WELL.

AS FAR AS WHAT SENTENCE WILL

LOOK LIKE, PEOPLE ARE PRETTY

MUCH JUMPING THE GUN BECAUSE SHE

MAY NOT BE CONVICTED AND THERE

ARE GOOD REASONS FOR THAT UNDER

THE PRECOURT CASE LAWS.

GETTING INTO FOR A LONG TIME.

ASSUMING THAT SHE IS FOUND

GUILTY, I DO NOT THINK THAT HER

CASE IS NECESSARILY VERY

COMPARABLE.

THERE'S A LOT OF DIFFERENCES

BETWEEN FACTS, THERE'S A

DIFFERENCES BETWEEN MONEY

EXCHANGE AND QUITE WRINKLY

, FRANKLY, IT'S SOMETHING THAT'S

LORI LOUGHMAN CAN POINT TO.

>> Mike: 'S AUNT BECKY HER

CHARACTER FACING SERIOUS PRISON

TIME?

>> IF YOU LOOK AT THE CITY

HUFFMAN CASE, MOST PEOPLE THINKS

IT'S A SLAP ON THE WRIST,

SENTENCED TO FIVE YEARS IN

PRISON, NOT FOR BRIBING BUT FOR

SIMPLY ROLLING HER CHILD IN THE

WRONG SCHOOL DISTRICT.

WHO VOTED WHEN SHE DATED DON

MONK DID NOT KNOW SHE WAS

ALLOWED TO VOTE IN TEXAS WHO WAS

ALSO SENTENCED FIVE YEARS.

THE IDEA 14 14 DAYS IN PRISON

THE IDEA 14 14 DAYS IN PRISOW

THE IDEA 14 14 DAYS IN PRISOI

THE IDEA 14 14 DAYS IN PRISOH

WILL MOSTLY BE LIKE CLUB FED,

SHE'S NOT SERVING A HARD 14

DAYS, IT'S TURNING TO LORI

LOUGHLIN'S CASE, I DO THINK

SHE'S GOING TO USE AUNT BECKY AS

BEING PART OF HER DEFENSE.

BEING THE CHARACTER, BEING A

LOVING FAMILY WOMAN AS OPPOSED

TO A COLD FACTS WHICH SHE SPENT

HALF A MILLION DOLLARS TO BRIBE

HER CHILDREN INTO SCHOOL.

WE HAVE TO STOP GIVING THESE

CRIMINALS SO MUCH COVER.

STOP LETTING THEM CRY IN FRONT

OF THE COURT IN ORDER TO GET

SOMEBODY.

TREAT THEM AS A CRITICAL C

TREAT THEM AS A CRITICAL I

TREAT THEM AS A CRITICAL A

TREAT THEM AS A CRITICAL L

MASTERMINDS.

>> Mike: THE JUDGE AND

FELICITY HUFFMAN'S CASE SAID "I

THINK THIS IS THE RIGHT SENTENCE

HERE.

IF YOU CAN MOVE FORWARD AND

REBUILD YOUR LIFE AFTER THIS.

WITHOUT THE SENTENCE, I THINK

THE COMMUNITY AROUND YOU WOULD

ASK WHY YOU GOT AWAY WITH THIS.

DO YOU AGREE, KATIE?

"I THINK THE SENTENCE WAS PRETTY

MUCH WHAT WE EXPECTED.

PROSECUTED ONLY LOOKING FOR ONE

MONTH IN JAIL, SHE PLED GUILTY

AND GAVE HER A GREAT BENEFIT TO

BEGIN WITH.

THE MAXIMUM SENTENCE THAT SHE

WAS FACING, IT WASN'T THAT GREAT

FOR WHAT SHE DID.

I THINK IT WAS REASONABLE, OF

COURSE, PEOPLE WANT TO SEE A

POUND OF FLESH FOR WHAT YOU DO,

IT'S VERY ENTITLED AND

DISHONEST.

THAT IS NOT OUTSIDE THE NORM.

IT'S VERY REASONABLE.

>> Mike: LET ME PLAY FOR YOU,

WHAT MEGHAN McCAIN SAID TODAY

ABOUT THIS CASE.

I'LL ASK YOU TO RESPOND.

>> I HAVE A LOT OF THEORIES

ABOUT HER BECOMING A MOTHER.

I DON'T THINK THAT MAKES YOU

BRIBE SOMEONE TO BREAK THE LAW.

I DON'T UNDERSTAND THE LOGICAL

CONNECTION, THE POSTER CHILDREN

OF WHAT EVERYONE HATES ABOUT

WHITE PRIVILEGE AND SHE DESERVES

TO GO TO JAIL.

WE WANT YOUR REACTION?

>> I THINK SHE'S COMPLETELY

CORRECT ON THAT.

WHEN MOST PEOPLE LOOK -- ECHOES

TO THIS IDEA THIS IS THE

AMERICAN, THIS IDEA THEY CAN GO

TO GO WORK HARD,

YOUR NOSE CLEAN.

IT'S HAVING RICH PARENTS WHO CAN

BUY YOUR WAY INTO COLLEGE TO BUY

YOUR WAY INTO THE INTEGER, VALUE

BY

YOUR WAY INTO THE JOB YOU NEED.

IT SHOULD BE THE ABSOLUTE

MINIMUM, IF NOT LONGER, BECAUSE

IT CUTS AT THE VERY SOUL OF THE

HIGHER EDUCATIONAL SYSTEM AND

THE CONCEPT THAT SERVING PEOPLE

GET TREATED DIFFERENTLY.
