What Felicity Huffman could expect in prison

Those accused of white-collar crimes, like Felicity Huffman and Lori Loughlin, have taken to hiring people like Justin Paperny, Federal Prison Consultant and Co-founder of White Collar Advice. Paperny spoke to Fox News about what these sort of white collar criminals can expect during any potential prison stay and shared some advice for making it as productive and uneventful as possible.

Editor's Note: The following is a statement released by Felicity Huffman following her sentencing Friday in the college admissions scandal: 

"I accept the court’s decision today without reservation. I have always been prepared to accept whatever punishment Judge Talwani imposed. I broke the law. I have admitted that and I pleaded guilty to this crime. There are no excuses or justifications for my actions. Period. 

"I would like to apologize again to my daughter, my husband, my family and the educational community for my actions. And I especially want to apologize to the students who work hard every day to get into college, and to their parents who make tremendous sacrifices supporting their children.  

"I have learned a lot over the last six months about my flaws as a person. My goal now is to serve the sentence that the court has given me. I look forward to doing my community service hours and making a positive impact on my community. I also plan to continue making contributions wherever I can well after those service hours are completed.

"I can promise you that in the months and years to come that I will try and live a more honest life, serve as a better role model for my daughters and family and continue to contribute my time and energies wherever I am needed. 

"My hope now is that my family, my friends and my community will forgive me for my actions."
