Another vaunted “journalist” with Pulitzer Prize bona fides has turned up to be a creep.

Pulitzer Prize-winning Washington Post journalist Thomas LeGro, 48, was taken into custody last week and charged with possession of child porn. And, just looking at this joker you can tell:

Don’t you just get a chill up your spine looking at this dweeb?

According to the Department of Justice:

On June 26, 2025, FBI agents executed a search warrant at LeGro’s residence and seized several electronic devices. A review of LeGro’s work laptop revealed a folder that contained 11 videos depicting child sexual abuse material.

During the execution of the search warrant agents observed what appeared to be fractured pieces of a hard drive in the hallway outside the room where LeGro’s work laptop was found.


“LeGro is a deputy director of video for The Post newspaper and was part of a team of journalists that won a Pulitzer in 2018 for their coverage of Judge Roy Moore and his run for the U.S. Senate in Alabama in 2017. Moore lost the race after several women accused him of sexually assaulting them when they were underage,” Just The News reported.

“The Post understands the severity of these allegations, and the employee has been placed on leave,” the newspaper told NBC News4 in a statement.
