WEINER OUT! Disgraced Former Congressman Leaves Jail After Serving Just 15 Months
Disgraced former congressman — and convicted federal sex offender — Anthony Weiner, was released from prison this morning after serving 15 months for sexting a minor across state lines.
The New York Daily News reports that Weiner has left the minimum security facility he’s called home for the last year, the Federal Medical Center in Devins, Massachusetts, and is now “in a reentry center,” working to acclimate back to normal life on the outside.
It’s not immediately clear if Weiner is a free man, however. He is either in a halfway house, the outlet reports, or he is under house arrest. He is being closely monitored by the Federal Residential Reentry Management Agency, according to the New York Post. He will not be officially released from federal custody until mid-May, though he managed to “shave about three months off his sentence,” the Post says, due to his good behavior behind bars.
Additionally, the Post reports, Weiner will “spend three years on supervised release and will have to pay a $10,000 fine as well as register as a sex offender.”
Anthony Weiner has been in and out of trouble over his “sexting” problem since 2011, when he was first caught messaging a woman who was not his wife, photos of his private parts, using Twitter. After first claiming to be hacked, Weiner was forced to resign his office and begin a public “rehabilitation.” (Read more from “WEINER Out!
