A federal judge in Boston sentenced the actress on Friday to 14 days in prison, a $30,000 fine, 250 hours of community service and a year's probation. Huffman was stoic in court, telling U.S. District Judge Indira Talwani she "betrayed" her daughters and her actor husband, William H. Macy. After her sentencing, she said via email: "I accept the court's decision today without reservation." Huffman pleaded guilty in May to paying an admissions consultant $15,000 to have a proctor correct her daughter's SAT exam answers in 2017.
