The feds are considering a hefty child pornography charge against disgraced ex-pol Anthony Weiner that could send him to prison for at least 15 years, law enforcement sources told The Post on Tuesday.
Weiner has been under investigation since a report last year revealed that he had exchanged lewd messages with an underage girl in North Carolina.
His lawyers have been meeting with Manhattan federal prosecutors in a bid to minimize his potential punishment, the Wall Street Journal reported Tuesday.
The horndog Democrat — who, after being forced to resign his House seat in a sexting scandal, derailed a 2013 comeback campaign for mayor by sending lewd texts under the pseudonym “Carlos Danger” — could be charged with production of kiddie porn for allegedly soliciting explicit photos of the teen, sources said.
That crime carries a mandatory minimum prison term of 15 years, and a maximum of 30.
Other charges under consideration include receipt of child pornography, which carries a five-year mandatory minimum, and possession of child pornography, which doesn’t have a mandatory minimum, sources said.
The laptop Weiner used to communicate with the girl was seized by the feds and helped derail Hillary Clinton’s presidential bid when FBI Director James Comey announced in late October that some of her emails to Weiner’s wife, Huma Abedin, had been found on it.

I say go after him AND the big fish. This is part of the stinking swamp. There are tentacles into many corners of the government, Hollywood, the media. This has international reach. Put them all in prison. Shut it down.
The more he sings, the less time he’ll get.
tired of “might”
put up or shut up.
Hell, there are UNDERAGED KIDS slapped with child porn for sending or receiving naked pics from their teen girlfriends!
Still wondering what ELSE re Huma was on that laptop
Yes, this is what should be happening. Senator Weiner should be staring down 10-15 years so he turns on the Clinton machine. He needs a LOT of protection because he is at high “suicide” risk.
Her career has been bookended and created by penises, the organ she hates!!! Ha ha ha.
He will make a deal about the clintons to stay out of prison.
In general, I’m enthusiastic about prosecuting perverts and pedophiles. In Wiener’s case, I’ve been enthusiastic about prosecuting him for years.
However, this one event is different. This is the “flirtation” of a dirty old man with a 15 y/o girl that led to Wiener’s laptop being confiscated by NYPD and putting Hillary’s sleaze on the front pages nationwide for the weekend before the election. At the very least, Wiener improved President Trump’s margins in swing states, and he may have changed the outcome as a whole. Even if he’s convicted, I won’t feel offended if the judge is lenient in recognition of Wiener’s service to America.
FBI investigating. He’s looking at production of child pornography. 15 yr mandatory minimum.
