John Legend has reacted to the outrage that trailed the
sentencing of Felicity Huffman to 14 days in prison over a college admission
fraud she was found guilty of.
Recall that LIB reported that the Desperate Housewives star
was also handed 250 hours of community service and $30,000 fine, after she
pleaded guilty to paying $15,000 (£11,500) to have her daughter's exam answers
secretly corrected in 2017.
However the Judge's verdict led to an outrage as social
media users pointed out some court cases in which women of colour were given
harsh sentences and more time in prison over similar offences.
John Legend who reacted to controversy the sentencing
sparked, called for equality in prison time. He also advocated for less time in
prison.
