Disgraced former Rep. Anthony Weiner (D., N.Y.), who is serving a 21-month prison sentence for sending sexually explicit messages to an underage girl, will be released from federal detention early because of good behavior, according to the Federal Bureau of Prisons.
Prison records show that Weiner, who was sentenced in September 2017 and began his term two months later, is scheduled to be released in May 2019, three months before his initial scheduled release date in August 2019, theNew York Post reported Monday.
A spokesperson for the Bureau of Prisons confirmed to Politico on Tuesday that Weiner will be released early for "good conduct."
The former Democratic congressman and failed New York City mayoral candidate experienced a political downfall in recent years due to repeated sexting scandals, Politico reported.
Before his sexual abuse scandal roiled New York and national politics, Weiner was a popular all-star Democrat, winning several terms in the U.S. House of Representatives by wide margins. But when Weiner was outed for sending an explicit image to an adult via his Twitter in 2011, the congressman resigned in shame.
Weiner announced a brief and unsuccessful 2013 bid for mayor of New York City, which came to a screeching halt when he was again revealed to be sending sexually explicit photographs under the pseudonym "Carlos Danger."

I wonder what kind of information that pervert traded for his freedom.
His sentence was far too short.
Not to worry, he is not reformed, he'll do it again and again and again and again.
Can I have his wife if he is done with her?
He will make a fortune on a book deal, and touring the liberal lefty talk circuit....and yes, he will keep doing his creepy pervy stuff...he's one of those that just can't help it.
