In June 2020, Griffin texted with the mother of two girls, ages 9 and 13, telling the mother that it was her responsibility to ensure the elder girl was "trained properly," according to the indictment.

Griffin transferred $3,000 to the mother for plane tickets from Nevada to Boston. In July 2020, the woman and her 9-year-old daughter flew to Boston where they met Griffin and drove to his Vermont home. There, the girl was "directed to engage in and did engage in illegal sexual activity," according to the indictment.

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 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.

The biological mom knew her child had been taken to Vermont, "but did not know anything like this was taking place until after she discovered these messages," the criminal complaint say

Through the messages, she also learned that the adoptive mom "had gone out to Vermont to visit a [man] named John Griffin who she met on an online /sex page."
