Man Accused Of Killing His Daughter’s Boyfriend Who He Claimed Sold Her To A Sex-Trafficking Organization
John Eisenman, 60, was taken into custody last Friday on a charge of first-degree murder for the killing of his underage daughter’s 19-year-old boyfriend, the Spokane Police Department stated Monday.
Authorities revealed that in October of last year, Eisenman “learned his juvenile daughter was allegedly sold to a sex-trafficking organization in the Seattle area.”

Eisenman “obtained information” that his daughter’s boyfriend – who police will not identify – “may have been the one responsible for her sale,” cops said.
Eisenman and his fiancée said that the couple took a trip to Seattle and saved their daughter in October 2020, according to the Spokesman-Review.
When Eisenman received a tip that the boyfriend would be somewhere in the city of Airway Heights and waited for him and approached him when he arrived.
“During that encounter Eisenman abducted the victim, tying him up and placing him in the trunk of a vehicle,” police shared in a statement, adding that Eisenman “subsequently assaulted the victim by hitting him in the head with a cinder block and then stabbed him” to death.
Police revealed that Eisenman then drove the body to a low-key area in North Spokane County and left the car and the body. The body was actually found last month when a “third party company” drove the vehicle to Spokane and didn’t know a body was in the trunk.
“While parked on Everett, individuals were rummaging through the car and taking items when they made the gruesome discovery” of the body, police said.
Eisenman is currently booked into the Spokane County Jail.
