What Mossimo Giannulli Is Requesting For The Remainder Of His Prison Sentence

Publish date: 2024-05-07

We don't expect prisons to have the amenities as a five-star hotel. However, it looks like Mossimo Giannulli might've missed the memo. According to a motion filed by the fashion designer's attorney, William Trach, Giannulli's living in some pretty tough conditions while in prison. Trach claims his client cannot go outside, only has "sporadic access" of communication with his family, and eats "all his meals alone in his cell," per Us Weekly.

Additionally, the celebrity attorney emphasized that Giannulli is unable to leave solitary confinement despite having negative COVID-19 test results. "[The Federal Bureau of Prison's] desire to take action to limit the spread of COVID-19 — including by quarantining new inmates for a limited period of time to ensure they do not report to prison with the virus — is understandable," Trach said in the documents (via Us Weekly). However, he went on to add that "subjecting Mr. Giannulli to weeks and months of solitary quarantine at a higher security facility is fundamentally unfair and finds no support in the directives and guidance that [the Department of Justice] has issued to BOP for stopping the spread of the virus."

Although Giannulli's conditions may not sound all that unusual for the average incarcerated person, Giannulli is getting a heap of support from his family. The Los Angeles native's son, Gianni Giannulli, shared thoughts on his father's prison conditions on Instagram, writing (via InTouch), "The mental and physical damage being done from such isolation and treatment is wrong." At this time, his request has not been granted.
