Lawsuit Settled Over Ex-CNN Producers Sex Acts With 9-Year-Old Girl

Published on

John Griffin, a former senior CNN producer, settled on Tuesday a lawsuit filed on behalf of the 9-year-old girl that he sexually abused in his Vermont vacation home.

Griffin, 46 years old, was sentenced in June to 19 1/2 years in prison by the U.S. District Court, after pleading to inducing minors into engaging in illegal sexual activity.

The Connecticut Superior Court lawsuit filed last year by the victim, who is now 11 years old, sought $15 Million in damages and attorney fees.

Robert Berke, Griffin’s civil lawyer, declined to disclose the settlement details. They were not published on the public docket.

Berke said to Fox that “after months of discussion, we were able to resolve this civil state court case and he’s glad to put it behind him.”

According to a federal indictment, Griffin invited women with their daughters underage to his $2 million chalet in Ludlow Vermont between April and July 2020 “for the purpose of sexual training.”

According to the complaint, a father of three boasted that he trained a girl who was only 7 years old and said a woman is a woman no matter her age.

According to court documents, a Nevada woman who was the adoptive mother of the 9-year-old accepted the offer and received $3,500 cash.

Griffin watched “pornographic video clips about sex between mothers and daughters” while the woman and girl were in the house in July 2020.

Griffin was watching as the child performed lewd sexual acts on her mother.

According to a court document, Griffin’s drone captured the child and himself in their underwear.

Griffin worked for CNN for eight years as a producer of the morning show “New Day”, which has since been canceled. CNN terminated him soon after the allegations were made.

Griffin had already left the $4 million Connecticut house he shared with his wife and children in 2021 before his arrest.

Griffin’s divorced wife and children will be grown-ups by the time Griffin is released from federal prison.
