DOJ: Washington Post Journalist Arrested, Charged With Horrific Child Crime

Thomas Pham LeGro, a Pulitzer Prize-winning video editor at The Washington Post, was arrested after FBI agents allegedly found child sexual abuse material on his work laptop. U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro announced that 11 illegal videos were discovered in a folder during a raid on LeGro’s Washington, D.C. home. Investigators also found fractured hard drive pieces near the laptop. LeGro appeared in federal court and faces up to 20 years in prison if convicted.

The FBI had been monitoring LeGro’s internet activity since May and linked him to digital currency accounts used by child pornographers in the mid-2000s. LeGro previously worked for PBS NewsHour and was part of the Post’s Pulitzer-winning team in 2017.

The Washington Post placed him on leave, stating it takes the allegations seriously. The case is being handled by the FBI’s Child Exploitation and Human Trafficking Task Force under the DOJ’s Project Safe Childhood, a program aimed at combating online child exploitation.
