Ex-ABC Senior Producer Who Rolling Stone Covered For Indicted On Child Porn Charges
Former ABC senior producer James Gordon Meek has been indicted on three counts of child pornography nearly one year after the FBI raided his Arlington, Virginia home.
If convicted, the Emmy-winning producer faces between five and 20 years in prison for transporting images of child pornography.
According to the NY Post, and noted by the Daily Mail, Meek's alleged pedophilia was exposed after Dropbox dropped the dime on him - alerting authorities to child porn stored on his account in March 2021.
Several of Meek's devices allegedly contained images depicting children engaged in sexually explicit conduct, and multiple chat conversations with users engaged in sexually explicit conversations where the participants expressed enthusiasm for the sexual abuse of children, according to the DOJ release.
In two of those conversations, a username allegedly associated with Meek received and distributed child sexual abuse materials through an internet-based messaging platform, as per the DOJ.
Following the raid, the department obtained a search warrant for Meek's iCloud account on November 14. They contained backups of two of his devices and included a screenshot of one of the explicit discussions.
They also uncovered an Apple laptop that contained 'approximately 90 images and videos of child pornography.' -Daily Mail
Meek, a divorced father of two, also allegedly had Snapchat and Instagram accounts that contained conversations and images of unidentified minor females.
