Every parent has had this thought at some point. I’ve even joked about it with other parents, but I never thought in a million years anyone would actually do it. I’ll admit to buying too much pizza and hoping the kids knock off early, but serving up benzo smoothies to 12-year-olds is fucking insane. He deserves what he gets, and should not be allowed near children without a lot of mandated therapy.
This was an attempted rape that didn't get far enough for the courts to 'prove' it, but the girls report him trying to separate them after they were drugged. He wasn't just trying to get them to quiet down.

wtf
WTF
Every parents nightmare is to get a message like this.
Everyone is making jokes in the comments.
But Fuck. This. Guy.
Yeah that message would haunt me for life.
The fact that he was repeatedly moving them away from each other while checking that they were still asleep, plus finally returned drunk??
"They were staying up too late and I wanted to go to bed" my ASS

Sorry I don't give the benefit of the doubt to the man drugging girls in his home. What is he moving them for?
Could easily be a "Oh shit! What have I done? Need to check vitals." situation.
I think what he did was wrong too. But over here we have that pesky innocent until proven guilty thing and I'm not wasting mental load on a hypothetical "What if?" dredged up by an internet stranger.
Just pointing out rape was not mentioned whatsoever in either article nor a charge in court, as that would certainly be reported. You made that up.
Re-arranging kids on the bed, I do that with my own children all the time. Kids are weird, I find them in the strangest orientations that very frequently leave parts of them hanging out of the bed or in danger of falling out entirely. I usually re-arrange them and tuck them in properly before I go to sleep every night. They're all double digit ages, so this isn't just a toddler thing or something. At a sleepover, if I found kids falling out of bed or in danger of smothering each other or something I'd absolutely just re-arrange them.
The drugging part, totally insane though.
Did you read the article how he did it? He was explicitly testing them to see if they were waking up from the movement or not in the most cartoonish ways possible.
The way you rationalize things is how children gets raped.
These weren't his kids, and he wasn't tucking them in, he was checking their breathing to see if the drugs worked.
Sad.
I rearrange my own kids when they don't get all the way back into bed after using the bathroom. There's no way I'm touching someone else's kids if they're sleeping at our house.
I love how you're getting down voted for a completely sane and logical take.
How completely sane and logical to think this man just drugged an entire group of children at a sleepover because he wanted to get some sleep.
You think it's sane to touch 12 year olds without their permission?
Sanity? On the INTERNET!? No! Scoop out your brain and light your pitchfork! Reeeee!

Linked elsewhere, but maybe you haven't read the comments here.
Literally speculation?
You don't wanna call it until you literally see him inside this 12yo or something?
I admit to giving my son melatonin as he went to bed. He had a hell of a lot of trouble staying asleep and after reading some research it seemed that he might be lacking that particular drug to help his brain stay asleep. This after his doctor came very close to killing him with overprescribing Abilify, to the point that the other psychiatrists called in to consult on his case were shocked at the dosage levels. He spent a week in the ICU on the edge of death. I should have not been satisfied with that doctor getting his license revoked, and instead pursued criminal charges, but alas, he's dead now. Not my son, the doctor. My son is flourishing.
that was a rollercoaster and a half
Username checks out
You know, after the last 20 years of having this name I should be used to it, but I have not ever tried cocaine or crack.
Not with that attitude!
Band name.
Nope. That's psycho shit
Psychos act on those dangerous or impulsive thoughts. Having the thought is human. Talking about it is healthy.
Speak for yourself.. I have never had the thought of drugging my kid so they sleep early
For starters, the entire point of a sleepover as a kid is to stay up late, chat, eat garbage food and watch tv/video games or whatever. I have never heard of anyone wanting a sleep over so they can go to bed early in someone else's home.
I don't even get what the deal is with people and strict bed times; let alone during a sleepover. If you don't want your kid to go to bed late, tell them they cannot have a sleepover.
