Weinergate: police involved? Updated!

**Posted by Phineas

Okay, this may just have taken a big turn for the worse for Congressman Weiner:

Police on Friday afternoon came to the home of a 17-year-old high school junior to ask her about direct online communications she has had with Rep. Anthony Weiner.

Two officers from the New Castle County Police Department arrived at the girl’s home around 4:30 p.m. and asked to speak with the girl’s mother about the daughter’s contact with Weiner. Another officer appeared at the home a short time later. A FoxNews.com reporter was at the home when the police arrived.

The girl, whose name is being withheld because she is a minor, told FoxNews.com, “I’m doing OK.”

But Rep. Weiner won’t be doing OK, if it turns out he was “sexting” a minor.

UPDATE: Weiner has admitted knowing she was 17, denies anything inappropriate. Patterico makes that very hard to believe.
