First sentence, very, perhaps too light, due to a scandal that outraged American public opinion. Judge Indira Talwani, from the Boston Court, sentenced actress Felicity Huffman to 14 days in prison, plus a fine of $ 30,000, a year of probation and 250 hours of social work. The prosecutor had requested at least a month in prison. It can safely be concluded, therefore, that the lawyers of the millionaire housewife Desperate 56, managed to contain the damage to their client. And inevitably, the thought goes to the hundreds of thousands of defendants, especially if they are African-Americans, without means and sentenced to heavier penalties for comparable, if not milder, crimes.
