While Weiner's legal team tried to argue – during his sentencing this Monday – that the sleazy former politician needed therapy instead of incarceration following his crime, the judge disagreed.
As RadarOnline.com readers know, Weiner's underage victim showed her face on camera for the first time since the incident, in a tell-all interview with Inside Edition."I was disgusted," she said "that's part of the reason why I came forward."
Weiner, 53, who is still married to Hillary Clinton's longtime aide Huma Abedin, was caught sending dirty texts and images to a fifteen-year-old girl back in 2016.
The chilling details of his crime were exposed after the FBI found proof on his computer.

Clinton's campaign was greatly affected by the scandal, as it was rumored that she and her party had known all along.
Troubled Weiner admitted to his crime and famously claimed: "I have a sickness, but I do not have an excuse."
Apologizing to his family and inconsolable wife, he said: "I am filled with regret and heartbroken for those I have hurt."
The underage victim, who took screen shots of her sickening conversations with the pervy politician exposed the texts to officials after she notified them of the situation. Read a troubling text from Weiner: "I would bust that tight p***y so hard and so often that you would leak and limp for a week."
After pleading guilty to his disturbing crime, Weiner will now spend 21 months behind bars as his heartbroken wife files for divorce.
