[Washington] Police say they found 19-year-old Aaron Sorensen stabbed to death inside his own vehicle but the alleged suspect’s motives behind the slaying might kill any sympathy you have for the alleged victim.
John Eiseman, 60, confessed to killing his daughter’s boyfriend after the teen reportedly sold his little girl to sex traffickers.
Spokane City Police reported:
“In October 2020 Eisenman learned his juvenile daughter was allegedly sold to a sex-trafficking organization in the Seattle area. Eisenman obtained information his daughter’s boyfriend (the deceased) may have been the one responsible for her sale. Eisenman was able to rescue his daughter and get her back to the Spokane area in October 2020.
In November 2020, Eisenman learned his daughter’s boyfriend was going to be at a location in Airway Heights, WA. 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.
After the homicide, Eisenman drove the vehicle to a remote area in North Spokane County and abandoned the car with the body still inside. The vehicle remained at that location until it was moved in October 2021 by a 3rd-party and driven to Spokane. At this point, it is not believed the 3rd-party knew the body was in the trunk. The vehicle, with the body still in the trunk, was abandoned at the Everett location. While parked on Everett, individuals were rummaging through the car and taking items when they made the gruesome discovery.
Eisenman was taken into custody by law enforcement without incident.”
How’s your sympathy for the alleged victim? Personally, I’m not feeling very sympathetic.
I am, however, very interested in hearing more about what the father went through to get his daughter back. Sex trafficking is a global epidemic and many families never recover their loved ones.
