Anthony Weiner could soon be indicted in sexting scandal

Horndog ex-New York congressman Anthony Weiner’s seemingly uncontrollable urge to sext could soon get him indicted, as a federal grand jury mulls charges over his online encounters with an underage girl.

The grand jury is expected to begin hearing evidence about the ousted pol’s explicit communications with the out-of-state teen by the end of the month, a law-enforcement source told The Post on Tuesday.

Legal experts have said Weiner’s latest sexting scandal could get him slapped with a federal charge of sexual exploitation of children, which carries a minimum of 15 years in the slammer and a maximum of 30.

He should run for president.

Given the mood of the country, not only would a child molester be a shoo-in, but he’d be declared by conreess to be immune from prosecution - assuming obama didn’t pardon him first.

Modern life in the USA....

Lo, how the Mighty have fallen. That being said, my $$ says he is only being prosecuted with Huma’s permission.

I can just hear Hillary cackling on the phone to Huma => ‘That’s one down, one more to go, ack! ack! ack!’

He should be indicted for being terminally stupid.

He’s a Democrat...NOTHING will happen to him UNLESS his “wife” Huma says so.

I’ve come to the conclusion that I don’t think these perverts can help themselves

Regardless of what it is, it should be a punishment severe enough to keep them away from society.

What’s the penalty for framing some one for that charge? Democrat black ops creeps tried to frame Assange for the same thing. We know their names, but will anyone have the courage and conviction to arrest them?

methinks Huma & Crooked are out to get him, otherwise none of his crimes would be known.

Actually, I doubt he was framed. Anyone who rises in the DC/NY swamp is compromised, else they wouldn't have risen.

As others said, Weiner would not be in legal trouble unless OK'd by Huma and Hillary.

Actually, the article never says he's a Democrat.

Yup—I think the vast majority of [male] politicians engage in this risky behavior. I also think its known and mostly gets swept under the rug unless someone has it out for them.

In the case of Weiner, I think he outlived his usefulness when he didn’t get elected Mayor of NYC. I always wondered about Eliot Spitzer too. His transgressions could have easily overlooked (especially with Obama in power), but were not. My theory is that Hillary saw him as a potential competitor for 2016, so he had to go.
