DEVELOPING: ABC Journalist Who Went Missing Last April After FBI Seized Classified Documents From His Laptop Arrested for Transporting Child Pornography

A former ABC journalist who went missing after the FBI raided his home and seized his laptop has been arrested for transporting child pornography.

As reported last year, Emmy-winning investigative journalist James Meek went missing after the FBI raided his Virginia home and seized classified information from his laptop in April 2022.

James Gordon Meek, 52, went missing after the feds raided his Arlington penthouse apartment, the Rolling Stone reported.

Meek produced the Hulu documentary “3212 Unredacted” which detailed the 2017 Pentagon coverup of the deaths of US special forces in Niger.

The “lightning raid” was conducted after a search warrant was approved by a federal magistrate judge in the Virginia Eastern District Court, Rolling Stone reported.

“If agents got hold of Meek’s records, the move would have had to have been approved by US Deputy Attorney General Lisa Monaco.” The New York Post reported.

.... Snip....

James Meek was arrested this week and faces up to 20 years in prison.

The Daily Mail reported:

The Department of Justice has arrested former ABC News producer James Meek for transporting images of child pornography, nine months after the FBI raided his home and took several of his electronic devices.

They don’t have to seize anything. If you have an Internet connection you are open to planting stuff on our box.

How was he arrested if he’s missing?

God, I hate the state of publishing/reporting/editing today.

Bet the guy wished he was pals with Epstein.

And still not a single person charged or even identified as one of the clients of the hundreds of molested and raped minors on Epstein Island. We all know why. One or two big names, sure - but Fifty? A hundred? Too much money and influence threatened to actually arrest the pedophiles. Throw in a Clinton or Gates into the mix, its a free pass for every one of them. The victims be damned. Remind your virtue singalling lefty friends every chance you get.

Looks like he used ‘confidential sources’ to create his movie. Thus the feds took his computers and such. The government was so embarassed by the movie that they could not press charges for the classified information because that would lead to discovery and would prove that the movie was completely factual. So they ‘found’ child porn. Maybe it is real, maybe it is just a naked Niger toddler running around a desert village. But it stinks to high heaven to me.

Here is the imdb link for the movie: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt15909364/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0

When ODA 3212, an elite U.S. Special Forces team is caught in a surprise attack deep in the Saharan Desert, killing four soldiers and leaving the rest stranded with no rescue or reinforcements sent their way, military brass immediately start spinning a fractured tale to hide the full truth from the public and the families of the fallen. Two years later, the Pentagon’s highly-redacted report on the ambush near Tongo Tongo, Niger shockingly accuses the team of going on a rogue mission to kill or capture a top ISIS commander. 3212 Un-Redacted is the result of an exhaustive three-year investigation that contains explosive interviews with a top Pentagon whistle-blower, the former general in charge of special operations in Africa, the team’s own commander in Niger and the families of all four fallen soldiers united in their quest for the truth. Through a network of confidential sources inside the military and intelligence community, the film unravels the dark truth covered up by commanders at the highest levels of the military. It blows the lid off of the official Pentagon narrative which pinned the blame on low-level soldiers to protect the careers of the senior officers responsible for the ill-fated mission.

First to say “ James Meek did not kill himself”.
Funny how the first question thinking have is “set up?”

Here is the link to a Daily Mail article that has some details on the child porn: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11702063/Ex-ABC-News-reporter-charged-transporting-child-porn-nine-months-went-hiding.html?ito=social-twitter_dailymailus

Agents seized ‘multiple devices’ allegedly containing evidence that Meek had transported images of child sex abuse, according to the Department of Justice.

They go on to say that ‘several’ of Meek’s devices allegedly contain images of children engaging in sexually explicit activities, as well as ‘sexually explicit conversations’ with people who ‘expressed enthusiasm for the sexual abuse of children.’ He also kept backups of them on his hard drive.

The DOJ adds that in two such conversations, a username believed to be associated with Meek ‘received and distributed child sexual abuse materials through an internet-based messaging platform.’

The NSA could have used setting this guy up as a basic training exercise for rookies.

The Feds have totally destroyed their credibility—no way to know if the charges are valid or contrived.

I could be wrong though.

I suspect you are, very wrong. No reason to run and hide for a year unless you know damn well you've been busted.

The porn was there and he knew it......Nothing was planted after seizure of the computers.

It’s a setup.

They obviously didn’t know he had it, or charges would have been filed long ago and the search warrant would have had that as the reason.
