Lori Loughlin having second thoughts about her plea of not guilty in college admissions scandal

Apparently, Lori Loughlin, the actress who is part of the college admissions scandal, is having second thoughts over her decision of initially pleading not guilty,  according to a new report.

Per Entertainment Tonight, sources say that the actress of the classic in TV entertainment known as "Fuller House"  feels "very much alone" during this process. Of course, if she is somehow convicted by a jury of her fans, she will have plenty of company where she would be sent. But for her to go to prison is about as like as seeing Michael Moore decline seconds.

The 54-year-old actress and her husband with an Italian name, Mossimo Giannulli, are being accused of paying $500,000 in bribes to get their two daughters into the University of Southern California as part of the crew team even though neither rowed nor would even think of being seen in a boat without a kick-ass motor. 

And worse, it's only USC, not Harvard. What were they thinking at that price?
"She is watching the reduced sentences of those who have taken plea deals, and wondering each day if she’s made the wrong decision," the source said. "While a few friends have stuck by her side, many others have cut her off." They don't want to be associated with someone who may have to "do a bullet."

"She still feels it’s a huge misunderstanding, but seeing others be sentenced has scared her."

Yes, a big misunderstanding like having a private email server with top secret information on it.

Felicity Huffman, 56, who was accused of paying an admissions consultant $15,000 to have a proctor correct her older daughter's answers on the SAT, pleaded guilty to the fraud charges in May. At that time, a press release stated prosecutors would recommend a four-month prison sentence and a $20,000 fine.

She was at least contrite, whereas Loughlin apparently believed she was judgment-proof.

“I am pleading guilty to the charge brought against me by the United States Attorney’s Office,” Huffman said in a statement. “I am in full acceptance of my guilt, and with deep regret and shame over what I have done, I accept full responsibility for my actions and will accept the consequences that stem from those actions."

As for how Loughlin is dealing with it during this period? The source told Entertainment Tonight that "she is trying to live a normal everyday life and to take this time to stay strong but it isn’t easy. Lori doesn’t have the support she once had."

Probably because she acted like an obnoxious a-hole when she was first caught.

"She is feeling a 'fall from grace' having had a persona as a wholesome mom and now being seen as a pariah," the source continued. "People keep giving Lori a hard time for being out and about and looking carefree, but she realizes that she might end up in prison and this might just be her last months of freedom for some time."

Maybe if she ends up in the slammer, they can do a Netflix series about her innocence. But there will have to be at least one LGBTQXYZ scene if it's going to be on Netflix.

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.
