By the time Felicity Huffman finally received her 14-day federal prison sentence, many of us already believed that she was just going to get a slap on the wrist anyway. She cut a plea deal early and admitted to her crimes repeatedly, although she did try to argue that she was simply going overboard for her ?severely learning disabled? daughters. Anyway, Felicity eventually had to go to prison and she did just that on October 15th, when she began her sentence at a low-security prison in Dublin, California. Guess what? She didn?t even have to do the full 14 days.
Actress Felicity Huffman was released from federal prison in Northern California on Friday after serving under two weeks for her role in a massive college admissions scandal. Huffman began her 14-day sentence at the Federal Correctional Institution, a low-security prison with approximately 1,200 female inmates, in Dublin, California, east of San Francisco, on Oct. 15.
Huffman was set to be released from prison Sunday, according to prison records, even though that was the 13th day of her sentence. She was released Friday as is normal policy for inmates who are set to be released on weekends, according to a prison official.

It was always going to feel like Felicity largely skated through that, especially when it was clear that prosecutors were basically only asking for her to do *some* prison time to save face. The 14-day sentence was a joke, and letting her out after 11 days feels like another joke. But whatever it?s over now. And now that Felicity is free, people are lining up for to get Felicity?s first TV interview:
Felicity Huffman is one of the most sought after actresses in Hollywood now that shes out of prison but the people seeking her out are major TV anchors angling for the first interview. Sources with direct knowledge tell TMZ before Felicity went to FCI Dublin to serve her 11-day sentence, she was approached by CNNs Anderson Cooper, CBSs Gayle King, NBCs Savannah Guthrie, and ABCs George Stephanopoulos all of whom pitched why they were the best choice. Were told the CBS pitch was that their morning show is less salacious than ABC or NBC.
Were told Felicity took it all in but hasnt decided who, if anyone, she feels comfortable with to sit down and talk. In fact, were told theres a very good chance she wont do any interview.

If I had done something wrong and walked away from 11 days in prison somewhat humbled, who would I give my first interview to? Probably? Anderson Cooper. But Felicity will probably want to talk to a woman if she does talk. Ooh, maybe she?ll hold out for Diane Sawyer. Diane still does those interviews for ABC specials. I could see that. But what?s more likely is that Felicity will wait until she has something to promote. Like? a book? I wonder if anyone has approached her about doing a book.
