NEW: Federal prosecutors call for Felicity Huffman to spend a month in jail and pay a $20,000 fine for her role in college admissions scandal.
They recommended that, after spending a month in jail, she should also have a year of supervised release.
They added that Huffman's"efforts weren't driven by need or desperation, but by a sense of entitlement, or at least moral cluelessness, facilitated by wealth and insularity," they said. In response, Huffman's attorneys requested the judge sentence her to a one-year term of probation and 250 hours of community service. She would also pay the $20,000 fine called for in her guilty plea.
"Ms. Huffman is deeply remorseful for her crime. She recognizes that she deserves to be punished for what she did," her attorneys wrote.
