The wife of ex-CNN producer John J. Griffin has filed for divorce.

Her husband was charged with luring minors to their ski home in Ludlow, Vermont for sex. 

Last month in the U.S. District Court in Burlington John Griffin,44, pleaded not guilty to three federal counts of using a facility of interstate commerce to attempt to entice minors to engage in unlawful sexual activity. He is being accused of luring underage girls for sexual abuse.

According to court documents he is charged with 3 attempts to entice minors to engage in unlawful sexual activity using the website “Kink”. 

The former CNN producer has bragged about engaging girls as young as 7 for “sexual subservience” training.  He is accused of trying to lure at least four girls, for the deviant sessions. And offered such things as “spanking” and “c–k worship.” 

Griffin would serve at least ten years in prison on each count if convicted.

Arrest of ex-CNN producer creates “toxic environment” 

Allyson Griffin filed court documents saying that John Griffin’s arrest last month “has created a toxic environment” in their home. The pending charges are especially difficult since the couple has three underage children.

She wants full custody of the kids. And is asking for alimony along with their $4.5 million estate in Norwalk, Connecticut.

She is also seeking a restraining order to bar her husband from entering the Norwalk property.

Veteran CNN producer John J. Griffin, 44, was arrested by the FBI on December 10th. And the indictment was unsealed Monday.  He is being accused of luring underage girls for sexual abuse.

From 2013 to 2018 the Connecticut man was a veteran CNN producer for “New Day” hosted by disgraced ex-CNN host Chris Cuomo. Later Griffin worked as a producer for CNN senior political analyst John Avlon.

Officials at CNN fired Griffin saying “The charges against Mr. Griffin are deeply disturbing. We learned of his arrest Friday afternoon and terminated his employment Monday.”
