ABC News reporter who deunked pizzagate faces life in prison on child rape charges

An ABC News reporter who bragged about ‘debunking’ Pizzagate faces life in prison after being convicted of a sickening array of child sex crimes.

James Gordan Meek, who had worked for ABC News for nearly ten years until an investigation into his child sex crimes led to his arrest, was convicted on federal charges of transporting and possessing child sex abuse material in July. 

Federal prosecutors are recommending that Meek receive a minimum of 15 years in prison.

Foxnews.com reports: The prosecutors detailed Meek’s actions in court papers that were filed last Friday. In them, prosecutors Zoe Bedell and Whitney Kramer wrote, “He clearly sought out individuals across the internet for the specific purpose of sharing (and expanding) his [Child Sexual Abuse Material] collection for his sexual gratification.”

They noted that Meek sent and received pornography of “infants and toddlers” as well as content “depicting sadistic and masochistic abuse of prepubescent children.”

In his search for the content, Meek solicited lewd images from underage individuals and even posed “as a minor himself.” According to court documents, law enforcement found text message conversations between the former journalist and two girls – one 14-years-old and the other 15 – who sent him pictures of their breasts.

The same messages included a video of himself “naked and holding his penis in his hand.”

The investigation into the ex-journo began last year after the FBI received a tip that videos involving the sexual abuse of children were associate with Meek. Law enforcement raided his home in Arlington, Virginia thereafter.

An FBI affidavit revealed that agents found dozens of child pornography images in the search that he had been collecting since 2014.

At the time Meek had been working as an investigative producer at ABC News. He had been at the outlet’s Washington bureau since 2013, after working at the New York Daily News for some time.

During his career, Meek also served as senior counterterrorism adviser and investigator for the U.S. House Committee on Homeland Security. In 2017, his breaking news coverage of shooting at Orlando’s Pulse nightclub received an Emmy.

Immediately after the raid on Meek’s home, Meek resigned from ABC News. He was arrested on charges of alleged transportation of images of child sex abuse in January 2023.

In court documents filed Monday, Meek’s lawyer, Eugene Gorokhov asked for no more than the minimum sentence, and argued that the prosecutors’ recommendations were “excessive.”

Gorokhov claimed that “Meek’s criminal conduct in this case is completely at odds with his proven personal values,” and appealed to the defendant being a father of two girls. The defense lawyer also argued that Meek’s coverage of the war on terror in the Middle East affected “his mental wealth.”

“It is notable that trauma has been found to lead to this type of emotional numbing, combined with an increased tendency towards impulsivity,” Gorokhov claimed. 

Representatives for ABC News did not immediately respond for comment.

  1. Common people commit crimes Well respected professionals commit professional, not normal, uncommon crimes. White collar crimes and perverted degenerate opportunistic abusive crimes

  2. Execution, not life in prison where they taxpayers spend a fortune & where these criminals can cause more problems. Enough of this garbage.

    • Put him in GenPop. We won’t be paying for long. Say what you will about convicts, but they still hate those who take advantage of the weakest in society.

  3. Pedophiles need to be put to death again. The fact he’d debunk pizzagate while being part of that problem proves he knew right from wrong and tried to cover it up. Nothing but death will do. Hopefully he’ll get inmate justice.

  4. Anything less than the death penalty in 30 days from conviction is unacceptable. It appears this is not just child molestation (touching) but this is full blown rape. It doesn’t say if it was boys or girls or both. This reveals what the leftist mockingbird media is all about. They are the propagators of evil and when we try to expose their nefarious deed, they say it is all just a conspiracy theory and doesn’t happen. Lying devils.

  5. Prison justice will take care of this. I will say that when I saw his picture, I thought “He looks like a guy who always has his d*ick in his hand. Looks like he couldn’t screw his way out of a wet paper bag. He was protecting his kind, not debunking the Pizzagate story

  6. Pizzagate was one hundred percent real and goes on to this day. It’s always those that protest the loudest, that are typically the most guilty of that which they protest. See US government.

  7. “He debunked Pizzagate …”

    And now he is off to prison for being a child rapist. The liberal media, one sick twist at a time.

  8. More and more evidence is coming out confirming Pizzagate was not a conspiracy theory. Guess who are in the middle of this? the Podesta brothers, Obama, and by extension many of the sewer.

    James Gordan Meek is just another actor of Operation Mockingbird.

  9. “Meek’s criminal conduct in this case is completely at odds with his proven personal values” Really? Seems he has a dearth of any values.

  10. so the hillary pedophile ring was debunked by a pedophile – i’m guessing the question remains large – hillary were you on epsteins list as a guest
