Anthony Weiner Will Get ‘Weinerrific’ Hot Dog For First Shabbat Dinner In Prison
By Ari Feldman November 6, 2017
Anthony Weiner’s first lunch in the big house consisted of pizza, spaghetti and a garden salad, TMZ reported, but for Shabbat dinner, he’ll get a hot dog.
“A Weinerrific dinner,” TMZ said.
Weiner will be dining in at Federal Medical Center in suburban Devens, Massachusetts.
The disgraced ex-congressman is beginning serving a 21-month prison sentence today after being found guilty in September of exchanging sexually charged texts with a teenager.
Over the coming week, Weiner will get to eat burgers, chicken patties and a baked potato at lunches. He can look forward to “brinner,” or breakfast-for-dinner, meal on Saturday in honor of Veteran’s Day.
A blog has listed the Devens prison at number 11 on its list of the world’s 50 most comfortable prisons. The facility has a sex offender treatment program on-site.
