Washington – 60-year-old John Eisenman of Spokane was arrested for killing his daughter’s boyfriend for selling her into a sex trafficking ring.
According to police, the boyfriend’s remains were found in the trunk of an abandoned 1991 green Honda Accord in Spokane last month.
Authorities believe the boyfriend, 20-year-old Andrew Sorenson, was killed in November 2020 after Eisenman learned his underage daughter had been trafficked in the greater Seattle area last year.
Eisenman rescued his daughter from forced prostitution and hunted down Sorenson.
Eisenman had reportedly “obtained information” that Sorenson was the one who was responsible for trafficking his daughter so he scouted a location in Airway Heights and waited for the boyfriend to arrive.
“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,” police said. “After the homicide, Eisenman drove the vehicle to a remote area in North Spokane County and abandoned the car with the body still inside.”
According to the Spokesman-Review, police arrested Eisenman on Friday and once in custody he confessed to killing Sorenson.
Eisenman was charged with first-degree murder and is currently in jail on a $1 million bond.
