Anthony D. Weiner, the former Democratic congressman whose sexting scandals ended his political career and embroiled him in a tumultuous F.B.I. investigation of Hillary Clinton before the election, is to appear in a federal courtroom in Manhattan on Friday to enter a guilty plea.
The
information has not been made public but was related by two people who
have been briefed on the matter and asked not to be identified.
Mr.
Weiner will plead guilty to a single charge of transferring obscene
material to a minor, pursuant to a plea agreement with the United States
attorney’s office in Manhattan, one of the people said. Mr. Weiner
surrendered to the F.B.I. early Friday morning.
The federal authorities have been investigating
reports that, beginning in January 2016, Mr. Weiner, then 51, exchanged
sexually explicit messages with a 15-year-old girl in North Carolina.
