Ex-Congressman Anthony Weiner out of prison after sexting 15-year-old girl, starts pre-release program in half-way house
Weiner will be free from custody three months earlier than his intended sentence on account of good behavior and he has been now transferred to a halfway house in New York.
Disgraced former congressman Anthony Weiner, who was sentenced to 21 months of prison in November 2017 for sexting a 15-year-old girl, has reportedly been released from jail. Weiner will be free from custody three months earlier than his intended sentence on account of good behavior and he has been now transferred to a halfway house in New York. He had been scheduled for release in August 2019 and now he is expected to be freed on May 14.
The 54-year-old began texting the teenager girl from North Carolina in 2016 and it led to a months-long exchange of lewd messages. According to law enforcement sources, Weiner will possibly remain in home confinement at the halfway house until his release date, TMZ reported.
