Felicity Huffman Was Ordered Out Of House At Gunpoint By Feds While William H. Macy Looked On

HOLLYWOOD, CA. (THECOUNT) — Felicity Huffman may have been tipped off that she was a target of the federal investigation into bribery in the college admissions process, but TMZ is reporting 7 federal officers showed up at her door Tuesday morning with guns drawn.

The FBI agents arrived to Felicity’s Hollywood Hills home at 6 AM and drew their weapons as they ordered Felicity to come out and surrender, sources familiar with the arrest told the gossip outlet.

TMZ says Felicity, her husband William H. Macy and their 2 daughters were asleep when the agents ordered her out. Our sources say she knew the arrest was looming and would have gladly surrendered on her own, but the feds saw it differently.

An FBI source familiar with the arrest tells TMZ guns were drawn as a precaution. It’s always left to the agents’ discretion whether to draw a firearm during an arrest.

The agents took Huffman to a federal building where she was processed by federal marshals.

Huffman was indicted for conspiracy to commit mail fraud and honest services mail fraud. The indictment claims Huffman made a charitable contribution of $15,000 to participate in a college entrance exam cheating scheme on behalf of her eldest daughter. The indictment claims the daughter was given twice the amount of time to take the SAT as other students and the paid proctor agreed to secretly correct her answers afterward, reports TMZ.

The docs claim the girl got a 1420 score … approximately 400 points over her PSAT.
