People got less for literal murder. And people, don't act like bribing to get into college isn't widespread af. Punish all those people too then. (not 50 years, but still make it a more than a slap on the wrist.)

She's being made an example. Being a privileged White Women, playing a memorable character from an iconic TV series, being rich and famous does you no favors.
---

Please. She won't even spend 50 days there.

---

Shes facing up to 50 years. She wont get squat.

Unless you kill someone

Not gonna lie, that seems a bit excessive.
---

She hasn't been convicted of anything yet. That's just the theoretical maximum sentence if she were guilty on all counts, which means nothing. She won't come close to that.

The article is clickbait.

She hasn't been convicted yet, that's just the max charge for the crime. She's will almost certainly face just a fraction of that, if any.

Edit: Beaten, but how similar our answers are is very funny to me.

30 days probation and a hefty fine.

Felicity Huffman got a lenient sentence for pleading guilty so it only seems fair Aunt Becky gets like a year in jail or something in between for lying. That's realistic and fair.

The idea of someone that rich getting anywhere near that much prison time is laughable.

Yeah, what the hell? They haven't giving her anything yet. They just added bribery as a charge and that carries a possible maximum sentence of 50 years. WTF TC.
---

This is clickbaitt, she hasn't even been convicted yet.

Though I bet she'll get 6 months, max and probably get out in 2.

Sorry guys got baited by Forbes
---

I don't really follow these things but I thought Forbes was above this, lol. >_>
---

She should definitely spend a few years in prison tho.
---

The key word here is faces. She'll make a plea deal and do 14 days like the other chick and get out in 7 days for good behavior.

That's not an actual Forbes article. Any piece that has a "Sites" in the URL is a blog entry:

sites/zackfriedman /2019/10/22/lori-loughlin-bribery-college-prison/#36555b1a679e

So that's the blog site for Zack Friedman. Almost anyone can get a Forbes link and post shit like this.

Thats like saying when I buy a lotto ticket, Im facing a $100,000,000 payday.

I am sincerely shocked, although it will most likely be reduced to 246 hours 12 minutes.
