A man from Washington state allegedly stabbed her daughter's boyfriend to death after he believes he sold her into a sex trafficking ring for $1,000.
Local police called the case "complex" and are still trying to figure out all of the facts.
The police was called on October 22nd when people reported an abandoned vehicle giving off a foul smell.
Inside, officers found a deceased 19-year-old man named Andrew Sorenson. A week later, 60-year-old John Eisenman was arrested and charged with first-degree murder.
According to police, Eisenman received information in October 2020 that Sorenson sold his daughter into sex trafficking in Seattle for $1,000.
Eisenman reportedly was able to "rescue" his daughter and brought her home to Spokane, Washington.
The police released the following statement regarding what happened next:
In November 2020, Eisenman learned his daughter’s boyfriend was going to be at a location in Airway Heights, Washington. Eisenman waited for the victim and confronted the 19-year-old as he arrived. During that encounter, Eisenman abducted the victim, tying him up and placing him in the trunk of a vehicle. Eisenman subsequently assaulted the victim by hitting him in the head with a cinder block and then stabbed him repeatedly, causing his death.
Eisenman then allegedly drove the vehicle to a remote area and abandoned it with Sorenson's body still inside. Eventually, the car was discovered and the smell was noted when people were rummaging through it and alerted police.
Eisenman reportedly has no previous criminal history. He was booked into Spokane County Jail and his bail is set at $1M.
