In 2021, Mack was sentenced to three years in prison. She served a total of 21 months at the Federal Correctional Institution in Dublin, California, before her release in July 2023. This series of events marked a significant and tumultuous chapter in her life, contrasting sharply with her earlier successes in acting.
