Weiner will plead guilty to sexting with 15 year old

[Arjuna]

Anthony Weiner is expected to plead guilty in a federal court on Friday to charges he sexted with a minor last year, according to a report.

The scandal-scarred former congressman will cop to a single charge of transferring obscene material to a minor as part of a plea agreement with the US Attorney’s Office in Manhattan, the New York Times reported.

Weiner was arrested after self-surrendering Friday morning to the FBI. He will appear in court at 11 a.m., the US Attorney’s Office said.

The charge carries a potential sentence of zero to 10 years in prison. A likely result of his plea is that Weiner will end up a registered sex offender, the Times reported.

Anyone want to bet his sentence is on the lower end? Like...no prison time.

It wouldn't surprise me if the judge sentenced him to do taxpayer paid community service in Schumer's office.

BREAKING: Anthony Weiner To Plead Guilty To Sexting Charge… | Weasel Zippers
Former Rep. Anthony Weiner will plead guilty on Friday to one federal count related to “sexting” with minors, the New York Times reported.

The U.S. Attorney’s Office in Manhattan confirmed Weiner will appear in court at 11 a.m., though it would not confirm the charge or the plea.

The Times reported that Weiner surrendered to the FBI Friday morning.
Federal prosecutors had been weighing whether to file child pornography charges against the disgraced former congressman since last year, sources previously told News 4 New York.

The potential charges stemmed from the sexually charged text messages and Skype conversations he allegedly exchanged with a 15-year-old girl for months last year. The messages were revealed when online news outlet DailyMail.com interviewed the girl last September.
Weiner might avoid prison time as a result of the deal but might also have to register as a sex offender, the paper reported.

If it was an average America that did this ... It would be a slam dunk in charging him with child porn .... Me thinks ...

State law makes it a felony to knowingly send minors "harmful" online messages or pictures involving nudity or sexual conduct or ask them to engage in sexual acts or performances, and some federal criminal laws also prohibit such behavior.

Ex-Secret Service Officer Gets 20 Years for Sexting Teens From White House
A former uniformed Secret Service officer was sentenced to 20 years in prison on Thursday for sending sexually explicit photos of himself to underage girls — while he was on duty at the White House.

Lee Robert Moore, 38, of Church Hill, Maryland, pleaded guilty in March to enticement of a minor to engage in sexual activity and attempting to transfer obscene materials to a minor. The Secret Service fired him after his arrest in November 2015.

At the time of his arrest, Moore was assigned to protect the White House complex, and prosecutors said he sent some of the materials while on guard duty at the White House.


Moore was nabbed in an undercover sting when he sent indecent materials, including a picture of himself, to someone he thought was a teenage girl on the mobile apps Kik and Meet24, according to the criminal complaint. The "girl" turned out to be an agent of the Delaware State Police working with the Delaware Child Predator Task Force.

After his arrest, investigators learned that Moore had sent sexually explicit messages and images of himself to real underage girls in Florida, Texas and Missouri, according to the complaint.

Moore's case was heard in U.S. District Court in Palm Beach County, Florida, so he could consolidate his guilty pleas.

Disgraced ex-congressman and serial sexter Anthony Weiner sobbed Friday morning as he admitted to exchanging X-rated messages with a 15-year-old girl.

“I have a sickness but I do not have an excuse,” Weiner told Manhattan federal Judge Loretta Preska.

Weiner, 52, said he hit “bottom” last fall before entering into outpatient therapy for sex addiction.

Weiner pleaded guilty to a single count of transferring obscene material to a minor as part of a plea agreement with the US Attorney’s Office in Manhattan. He must register as a sex offender.

He also agreed to forfeit his iPhone as part of the deal.

Weiner admitted that in 2016, he started up an online relationship with the North Carolina teen “who said she was a high school student” after she contacted him online.

“I knew that was morally wrong,” Weiner said, breaking down in tears.

The charge carries up to 10 years in prison but prosecutors are calling for Weiner to be sentenced to between 21 and 27 months. Ultimately, the judge will decide Weiner’s punishment.
