NEW YORK – Democrat former Congressman Anthony Wiener cried before the judge Friday when he pleaded guilty to federal charges of transmitting sexual material to a minor. He could face two years in prison – sentencing is set for September, USA Today reports.
His estranged wife, Huma Abedin, the one-time close aide to Hillary Clinton, filed for divorce the same day. The divorce action, labeled "anonymous versus anonymous," was filed in Manhattan Supreme Court, the Associated Press reported.
The 52-year-old Democratic politician from New York, who resigned from Congress in 2011 over an earlier sexting scandal, will also have to register as a sex offender.
Not mentioned in the USA Today report is the fact that the FBI found highly-classified info on the now-convicted felon's laptop, forwarded to him by his estranged wife obtained through her work aiding Hillary Clinton.
