Sharpe covers crime, often with a focus on failures of the criminal justice system and government agencies. His reporting has exposed how child welfare workers failed two children who were later found buried behind their home. In 2020, Sharpe's reporting on a double murder case led to the release of the man who'd served 20 years while insisting his innocence. A native of Waycross, Ga. in the Okefenokee Swamp, Sharpe lives in Atlanta.
