A former CNN producer pleaded guilty to a child sex charge on Monday for sexually assaulting
a 9-year-old girl after luring her to his Vermont ski house.
John Griffin, 45, pleaded guilty in federal court to using interstate commerce for the enticement of a minor as part of a plea deal in which the two remaining counts of enticement of a minor he was initially charged with last year were dropped.
Griffin, of Stamford, Connecticut, met a woman online and persuaded her to bring her 9-year-old daughter to his $2.5 million Vermont cabin where he engaged in sexual activity with the child, according to prosecutors.
Griffin paid the mother $3,000 to fly from Nevada to Boston in July 2020, where he picked them up in a Tesla and drove them to his Ludlow, Vermont house, where he directed the young girl to engage in unlawful sexual activity.
The mother, Heather Carriker, was also arrested and slapped with child abuse and child sex assault charges.
The former producer asked the parents of several minors to
bring their daughters to his home for “sexual subservice” training and allegedly bragged about luring girls as young as 7 to his pad.
He told the parents he believed that a “woman is a woman regardless of her age” and that as such, all women should be sexually subservient and inferior to men, prosecutors said.
