CNN Producer Sentenced For Sexually Assaulting A Minor

 

 

Ex-CNN producer John Griffin bagged more than 19 years in prison for $exually assaulting a 9-year-old girl, revealed prosecutors. Griffin earlier pleaded guilty to child $ex charges last December as a part of a plea deal which saw two other counts of child $ex charges initially filed against him dropped.

The 45-year-old Connecticut man reportedly met a woman online and persuaded her to bring her 9-year-old daughter to his house, where he engaged with the minor girl in illicit $exual activity. According to New York Post, the mother, Heather Carriker, was also arrested and slapped with child $ex charges.

 

 

A victim during Tuesday’s hearing told the Judge that she has difficulties trusting people while telling Griffin that “You make me sad and angry.”

 

 

As per prosecutors, Griffin would communicate with parents having minor girls over Google Hangouts and lure them into making their girls engage in $exual activity with himself. During one of those conversations, Griffin would once say that a “woman is a woman regardless of her age” and that women should be $exually subservient and inferior to men.

 

 

 

In June 2020, Griffin instructed the mother of a 9-year-old and a 13-year-old girl that her responsibility was to ensure her older daughter was “properly trained.” He then transferred over $3,000 to the woman for plane tickets, enabling the mother and her 9-year-old daughter to travel from Nevada to Boston.

 

 

 

 

According to prosecutors, the mother and child flew to Boston in July 2020, where Griffin picked them up in his Tesla and drove them to his residence in Ludlow. At his house, the daughter was coerced into engaging in unlawful $exual activity.

 

 

 

 

In exchange for Griffin’s guilty plea filed last December, prosecutors dismissed two charges related to allegations that he also attempted to entice two other children into $exual activities. One of these allegations involved a mother and her 14-year-old daughter, to whom Griffin offered a “virtual training session.”

 

 

 

 

Griffin worked for CNN for about eight years but was fired after he was arrested.According to AP,

 

He also cannot have contact with people under the age of 18, except in the presence of an adult who has been approved by a probation officer, and is prohibited from being in areas where children congregate, such as schools, playgrounds and theme parks, unless approved by the probation office beforehand.

The mother of the victim, Heather Carriker from Henderson, Nevada, was arrested and charged in August 2020, although the current status of her case remains unknown.
