A CNN producer from Stamford, Connecticut, was arrested by the FBI Friday after he was accused of luring mothers and their underage daughters for “sexual training” and unlawful sexual activity, the US Attorney’s Office for the District of Vermont said in a news release.
John Griffin, 44, was charged with three counts of using a facility of interstate commerce to attempt to entice minors to engage in unlawful sexual activity.
The indictment said Griffin used messaging apps like Kik and Google Hangouts to connect with people who claimed to be the parents of young girls. He tried to “persuade parents to allow him to train their daughters to be sexually submissive,” the news release said.
In one incident described in the indictment, Griffin is accused of sending a mother from Nevada $3,000 to fly her and her 9-year-old daughter to visit him, and of engaging in “unlawful sexual activity” with the child.

Elizabethan Trade with Europe, c. 1600
A map illustrating the flourishing English trade with Europe during the reign of Queen Elizabeth I of England (r. 1558-1603). Following the abolishment of the Hanseatic merchants’ Baltic monopoly, access to a new commodities market in Amsterdam, and establishment of various trade companies (Muscovy, Eastland, Levant, and East India), the English merchants could now exchange wool and woolen cloth for grain, timber, oriental spices and continental wine, furs, silk, gems and exotic fruit from as far away as China, Africa, and the Americas.
