CNN suspended one of its staffers following a federal indictment accusing him of coercing parents to allow their minor daughters to engage in sexual activity in his home.

John Griffin, who according to his LinkedIn profile is a senior producer for CNN’s flagship morning program “New Day,” was arrested on Friday by the FBI after being charged by a grand jury in Vermont “with three counts of using a facility of interstate commerce to attempt to entice minors to engage in unlawful sexual activity.”

Griffin’s verified Twitter account also identifies himself as “Writer, Father, Tech Head.” The accused pedophile had been working for CNN since 2013. Griffin’s time as a senior producer for CNN’s “New Day” partially coincides with fired anchor Chris Cuomo’s tenure as anchor of the morning program before taking the helm of “Cuomo Primetime.”
