Lori Loughlin thought the law didn't pertain to her

"Full House" actress Lori Loughlin could have made a plea deal but turned it down because she thought the district attorney was just "bluffing," as she said, because evidently, Hillary Clinton clearly broke the law, therefore the law doesn't apply to famous people.

Now she's freaked out over the prospect of prison time, E! News reports.

Unlike the actress Felicity Huffman of "Desperate Housewives," who was also caught up in the college bribery scandal, Loughlin and her clothing company CEO hubby Mossimo Giannulli, refused to accept a plea deal over the mail fraud charges connected to the bribery scheme.

On Monday, Huffman pleaded guilty and issued a lengthy apology to everyone and their brother. More than a dozen additional defendants were grabbed in "Operation Varsity Blues" and have pleaded guilty because they are. But Loughlin and Giannulli turned down the offer.

Now, according to E! News' sources, Loughlin is in "anguish," realizing that she had failed to fully accept the seriousness of the situation and that even rich and famous people can go to prison, [except for black rich and famous people like Jussie Smollett.]

On Tuesday, Loughlin and Giannulli learned that along with charges of conspiracy to commit mail fraud and honest services mail fraud, they were also being charged with conspiring to commit fraud and money laundering. Altogether, the couple now faces up to 40 years in prison, E! notes.

I'm skeptical but let's see what happens.
