As Felicity Huffman approaches the halfway point of her 14-day federal prison sentence in the college admissions scandal, some details about her stay there are emerging.
###
In short: We know what the 56-year-old is wearing, who’s coming to visit her and what her living quarters are like.
###
The ‘Desperate Housewives’ and ‘American Crime’ actress is serving her sentence at the Federal Correctional Institution in Dublin, a low-security facility in Alameda County that houses about 1,200 female inmates east of San Francisco and Oakland. She had pleaded guilty to paying scam mastermind Rick Singer $15,000 (Dh55,089) to rig her daughter Sophia Macy’s SAT scores.

Paparazzi got pictures of Huffman wearing a deep-green prison outfit and white cap — so much for orange being the new black? — as she headed to meet with her family on Saturday, TMZ reported.
###
Husband William H Macy visited with Huffman “for a few hours” that day with 17-year-old daughter Georgia Macy in tow, then returned solo on Sunday, according to ET.
###
Sophia Macy, 19, who was not photographed with her family over the weekend, has reportedly put her college plans on hold.
###
The same source who spilled those beans to ET said Huffman is currently living “in a room with inmates with a toilet in the middle of the floor. She’s in prison garb and there’s work duty — it’s pretty serious stuff.”
###
“I have learned a lot over the last six months about my flaws as a person,” Huffman said in a statement issued after her sentencing in September. “My goal now is to serve the sentence that the court has given me. I look forward to doing my community service hours and making a positive impact on my community.”
###
She also apologised to her family and said she accepted the court’s decision “without reservation.”
###
In addition to her prison time, Huffman was sentenced to 250 hours of community service and a $30,000 fine, and she’ll be on probation for a year.
###
Though federal inmates sentenced to less than one year can’t earn time off for good conduct, the actress’ 14-day sentence is likely to run only 13 days because of time she spent in federal custody after her arrest in March.
