They are horrible mistakes, but jail should be reserved for people who will hurt other people if left free.

Um, no. Tax fraud is a big deal. Or else most of us would commit it.

Also, they did hurt other people, you dolt. They legitimately stole spots that would otherwise have gone to students that earned it. Oh, and then there's the tax fraud.

The white collar crime they did is the same in my eyes as Trump and his 'ilk'. They defrauded not only hard-working students but also the parents struggling to support their kids the best way they could.

It was a slap in the face to Middle America. So forgive me if I don't think their criminal actions don't deserve equally punitive results.

Haha, I got news for you: many people DO commit it. From paying your nanny under the table to claiming your bedroom as a home office, I feel about 50% of people I know do this crap.

If you honestly think people who commit tax fraud (that isn't at the Trump, Manafort, etc. level) deserve the same punishment as murderers and rapists, you live on another plane from me.

Hallmark on Thursday said it will no longer work with Lori Loughlin, the Full House actor who has become a staple on the channel over the years, after she was charged in connection with the massive college admissions fraud case.

Loughlin is a series regular on Hallmark's drama When Calls the Heart, which is currently in its sixth season and is one of the most-watched shows on cable TV. All shows in development have stopped production!

when it rains, it pours.

sucks to be every single other person who worked on production for that show and now out of a job because of a rich woman cheating the system for her spoiled bratty kids who don’t even want to go to college in the first place.

I am sure they're going to find an adequate replacement! please.

Oh boo hoo someone didn’t get to go to a private college. Or someone’s parent had to donate a new wing of a building.

You do realize there are different levels of sentencing right? It's not - go to jail for life or not.

Murder can get you 25 years (a quarter of a CENTURY) to life. Rape (if you're Brock Turner) gets you 3 months or as much as 15 years.

This case will probably get them 1-2 years and that is a satisfactory sentence in my eyes.

This poor black woman got put in jail for falsely claiming her father’s residence as her own so her kids could go to a safe public school. But sure no jail for Lori because she’s rich and white and her lazy daughters deserved to get in via bribery.

The story of a black mother who served jail time for using her father’s address so her two daughters could enroll at a better school gained new attention on social media this week as news of a widespread college admissions scandal broke.

Kelley Williams-Bolar served nine days in jail in 2011 after she was found guilty of using her father’s address instead of her own in an attempt to have her daughters enroll in a better school district than the Akron, Ohio, one they were slated for, according to HuffPost.

Williams-Bolar was also put on probation for three years and required to complete 80 hours of community service.

Lori Loughlin's daughter Olivia Jade was aboard USC official's yacht in Bahamas when mom was charged:


Lori Loughlin's daughter Olivia Jade Giannulli was spending spring break on a University of Southern California official's yacht when her mother was accused Tuesday of involvement in a college admissions scheme, reports said.

Giannulli, 19, was on Rick Caruso's luxury yacht Invictus in the Bahamas, a report said. Caruso is chairman of USC's Board of Trustees.

Giannulli, who currently attends USC, was with Caruso's daughter Gianna and several other friends, the outlet reported.

"My daughter and a group of students left for spring break prior to the government's announcement yesterday," Caruso told TMZ. "Once we became aware of the investigation, the young woman decided it would be in her best interests to return home."

Loughlin's daughter has since returned to Los Angeles to face the allegations that could result in her getting expelled from USC.

USC's Board of Trustees will not decide the status of Giannulli and the other students involved in the case, but rather, the university's president will make the decisions, according to TMZ.

Loughlin's rep had no comment.

Ok..this sounds about right for LL. A week in jail, a fine, and community service.

yes that is the point. Hallmark will replace her - Brooke Shields would be a great replacement - and no one will lose their job. That was your point, correct?

Both of Lori's daughters just quit USC. Seems appropriate under the circumstances.
