CNN Fires Senior Producer Who Allegedly Gave Mother Money to Rape Her 9-Year-Old Girl
CNN fired senior producer John Griffin shortly after he was arrested by the FBI and charged with federal child sex crimes.
The 44-year-old man from Connecticut worked for CNN for about eight years, according to the cable news company.
Griffin faces three counts of “using a facility of interstate commerce to attempt to entice minors to engage in unlawful sexual activity” according to the United States Department of Justice in a release. He was arrested on these charges Dec. 10.
According to his indictment, Griffin used messaging apps “Kik” and “Google Hangouts” to chat with parents of minor daughters.
He would allegedly attempt to persuade those parents to allow him to “train” their daughters to be “sexually submissive”, the DOJ release states.
Allegedly, during his conversations with these parents, Griffin said a “woman is a woman regardless of her age” and he also said women are inferior to men and should be sexually subservient.
DOJ documents say Griffin was in contact with a mother of two young daughters, one 9-years-old and the other 13-years-old.
He told the mother it was her responsibility to make sure her eldest daughter was “trained properly”, the DOJ says.
Griffin allegedly gave money to the mother so she and her daughter could meet him. Once they met, the daughter engaged in “unlawful sexual activity”, according to the DOJ’s report.
