Felicity Huffman asks to serve time at posh California prison near her home

Following Felicity Huffman’s conviction in the Varsity Blues college admissions scandal, lawyers for the actress requested she spend her two-week sentence at a minimum-security, cushy northern California prison.

The Federal Bureau of Prisons will make the ultimate decision, but Huffman’s attorney argued she should be housed at the Federal Correctional Institution at Dublin, Calif., during her stint in the big house so she can see her family.

Attorney Martin Murphy asked Judge Indira Talwani to let Huffman stay at the prison, the closest to her residence.

The Dublin facility was listed as one of Forbes’ 10 cushiest prisons in 2009 saying “proximity to the Bay Area means gorgeous weather and easy travel options for visitors.”

Visitors are allowing between 8 a.m. and 2 p.m. on Saturdays, Sundays and holidays, according to the federal prison’s handbook.

Huffman will also have access to the extensive commissary available to inmates.

Heidi Fleiss, the “Hollywood Madam,” and Patty Hearst previously served time at Dublin. Prior to becoming a women’s prison, Dublin was the site of a daring rescue when Ronald McIntosh escaped from the prison in October 1986 and hijacked a helicopter to spring his lover Samantha Lopez who was also serving at Dublin.

In the 1990s, Dubin was one of several prisons dubbed “Club Fed” because of the perks available to inmates.

“They come here as punishment, not to be punished," then-warden Constance Roose told the San Francisco Chronicle in 1998.

“We try to encourage the women,” Reese said. “This is an opportunity for them to turn their lives around, and hopefully when they return to the community they won’t return to a life of crime.”
