BOSTON—Federal prosecutors urged a judge Monday to accept deals that call for “Full House” actor Lori Loughlin to spend 2 months in prison and her fashion designer husband, Mossimo Giannulli, to serve 5 months for paying half a million dollars to bribe their daughters’ way into college.

Ahead of the famous couple’s scheduled sentencing hearings Friday, prosecutors said in court filings that the proposed prison terms are comparable to the sentences other prominent parents charged in the case have received, while accounting for Loughlin and Giannulli’s “repeated and deliberate conduct” and their “decision to allow their children to become complicit in crime.”
