A former CNN employee and current Fox Business journalist was busted at a New York City courthouse earlier this month after allegedly attempting to smuggle a crack pipe into the federal building.
Fox Business reporter Lawrence Crook III was escorted out of the Daniel Patrick Moynihan Courthouse around 11:30 a.m. local time on December 9 after it was revealed that he had what appeared to be a crack pipe stashed on his person.
Sources said the reporter could be overheard complaining about how he was in “big trouble” and recently lost his job at CNN.
While a Federal Protective Service spokesman told Law360 that an officer saw the glass pipe fall out of Crook’s pocket in the courtroom before he was removed, the New York Post, citing “multiple sources with knowledge of the incident,” claimed an officer spotted a bulge in the Fox Business reporter’s sock.
Neither Fox Business or Fox News, the channel’s parent company, has commented on the matter.
