Ex-CNN Producer John Griffin pleads guilty to child sex charge

A former CNN producer pleads guilty to a child sex charge for sexually assaulting a 9-year old girl after luring her to his Vermont ski house.

John Griffin pleaded guilty to enticement of a minor and faces at least 10 years in prison, said Vermont State Police.

John Griffin, 45, pleaded guilty in federal court to using interstate commerce for the enticement of a minor as part of a plea deal in which the two remaining counts of enticement of a minor he was initially charged with last year were dropped.

Griffin, of Stamford, Connecticut, met a woman online and persuaded her to bring her 9-year-old daughter to his $2.5 million Vermont cabin, where he engaged in sexual activity with the child, according to prosecutors.
