A CNN producer for fired anchor Chris Cuomo has been charged in a plot to lure a mother and her young daughter to come to his home to 'train' her to be sexually submissive.
John Griffin, who worked on the CNN show New Day when Cuomo was its host, was charged Friday with three counts that he used a 'facility of interstate commerce to abuse underage girls.'
A Vermont grand jury indicted 44-year-old Griffin, from Stamford, Connecticut, of attempting to entice the girls to engage in sexual activity.
'According to the indictment, between April and July of 2020, Griffin utilized the messaging applications Kik and Google Hangouts to communicate with people purporting to be parents of minor daughters, conveying to them, among other ideas, that a 'woman is a woman regardless of her age,' and that women should be sexually subservient and inferior to men,' according to a statement from the Department of Justice on the case
