Eisenman discovered that his daughter was allegedly sold into a sex trafficking ring in the Seattle area and learned that her boyfriend may have been responsible in October of 2020. He was able to get his daughter back home safely within the same month, according to the SPD.
After Eisenman allegedly bashed the victim’s head in with a cinderblock and repeatedly stabbed him, he drove to an area in North Spokane County, where he abandoned the car with the body still inside, police said.
The body was discovered when the car was moved to Everett in October 2021, after people rummaged through the vehicle for parts and found the body, according to the SPD.
Eisenman was arrested for first-degree murder, however the investigation remains ongoing, police said.
