Sickening new details have emerged in the child-rape case against former CNN producer and disgraced anchor Chris Cuomo’s one-time sidekick, John Griffin.
An adoptive mother whom Griffin importuned to “sexually train” her daughter, a criminal complaint against the woman says, left the girl in Griffin’s care. As well, Fox News reported about the complaint, the FBI seized Griffin’s computer and other electronic devices more than 15 months ago. Agents arrested Griffin last week.
Meanwhile, Project Veritas has uncovered another pervert producer at the network. It released an interview with a woman who disclosed disturbing phone and text messages from the man.
CNN has fired Griffin. Presumably it will pink slip the unnamed pervert whom PV uncovered. But the latest invites the question of how many more sexual deviants at CNN are directing news coverage, including that about child sex trafficking.
New Details
As The New American reported early this week, prosecutors charged Griffin with “three counts of using a facility of interstate commerce to attempt to entice minors to engage in unlawful sexual activity.”
In fact, if what prosecutors allege is true, Griffin paid the adoptive mother in the criminal complaint $3,350 to rape the nine-year-old. That allegation is the subject of the third count in the federal indictment, Fox reported.
“After the woman’s arrest in August 2020, federal investigators seized “computers, storage media, devices, phones, cameras, MicroSD cards, images, and video” from Griffin on Sept. 2, 2020, according to court documents,” Fox reported:
The criminal complaint filed against the Nevada woman on Aug. 25, 2020 in Henderson Justice Court details the horrific abuse and describes her as the adoptive mother.
The woman allegedly flew the 9-year-old from Nevada to Boston, Massachusetts, where Griffin is accused of picking them up in a Tesla and driving them to his $2 million vacation house in a Vermont ski town, according to the federal indictment.
In the Nevada complaint, the 9-year-old described the Vermont house as “a cabin with a garage and three floors.” She also told investigators that “a man named John” picked her up from the airport in a red Tesla.
After that, the complaint alleges, the girl went back to her biological mother, who does not have full custody. But “when it came time for the adoptive mom to pick her up, she could not be found,” Fox reported:
The victim’s biological mother discovered that the adoptive mother was logged in on her daughter’s smartphone. So she used it to post to the other woman’s social media accounts, asking for help finding her.
Then she discovered appalling text messages discussing sex toys, bondage activities, the girl and Griffin.
Though the biological mother knew the girl was in Vermont, she had no idea that she was there to slake what the federal indictment suggests is Griffin’s insatiable thirst for little girls.
The biological mother learned that the adoptive mother went “to Vermont to visit a [man] named John Griffin who she met on an online porn/sex page,” Fox reported of the complaint. The visit was for sadomasochistic sex with Griffin.
She called Griffin, who told her that the other woman had been hospitalized in Boston during their trip, according to the complaint. The discussion left out details about their BDSM-themed encounter, which purportedly included scenarios too explicit to print.
While this woman was in the hospital, the child was allegedly alone with Griffin in his ski-in/ski-out mountainside chalet.
“John claimed nothing happened between him and [the child], and told [the mom] he did not want to talk to police but would if he needed to,” the court papers allege.
The adoptive mother and her sex partners, including Griffin, forced the little girl to watch them have sex, the complaint alleges. The adoptive mother claimed the girl wasn’t in the room during the BDSM activities.
Sickeningly, “the charges that do involve Griffin allege that he watched as the child was made to perform lewd acts with the adoptive mother,” Fox reported.
After three nights of that rape, the child refused to participate.
Authorities have charged the Nevada woman with multiple felonies. Many are unrelated to the assignation with Griffin.
Griffin’s federal indictment alleges that he “sought to persuade parents to allow him to train their daughters to be sexually submissive.” He also told the father of a potential victim that he had raped a seven-year-old, prosecutors allege. Griffin used the words “sexually trained.”
Griffin, whose marriage was troubled, told the parents of the kids that women are “whores” and “dirty sluts,” the federal indictment alleges.
Another Pervert Producer
Meanwhile, Project Veritas claims it has uncovered another pervert at the network.
Jane Bonanni, a case manager for sex-trafficking victims, gave PV texts and voice messages from a producer who describes in vivid detail what he wants to do his fiancé’s daughter. A former prostitute, Bonanni said the producer wanted to see “me and the step-daughter together.” The deviant also asked for photos of Bonanni and her daughter.
Bonanni went to PV because police did nothing when she reported the producer.
Explicit details are in PV’s video interview with Bonanni.
