A CNN producer who worked closely with disgraced former anchor Chris Cuomo was charged this week for allegedly attempting to entice parents of underage girls to hand over their daughters for sexual training hosted by himself.

John Griffin, 44, was arrested by the FBI on Friday after he was charged with “three counts of using a facility of interstate commerce to attempt to entice minors to engage in unlawful sexual activity” by a federal grand jury in Vermont.

Griffin, who has a long history of working for corporate media companies and was with CNN for nearly nine years, allegedly used online messaging platforms such as Kik and Google Hangouts from April 2020 to July 2020 to reportedly lure parents and their underage daughters to his house where he bragged that he could teach them sexually.
