An Oregon man who drugged his daughter and her friends with fruit smoothies laced with a sleeping medication after they didn’t go to bed during a sleepover was sentenced to two years in prison.

Michael Meyden, a 57-year-old from the Portland suburb of Lake Oswego, apologized during his sentencing Monday after pleading guilty to three felony counts of causing another person to ingest a controlled substance, The Oregonian reported.

“My whole life is destroyed,” he told the court. “Everything that was important to me up until that point is gone.”

    No. Do not fucking downplay drugging children. You should delete your comment, it’s entirely unacceptable to drug your own children without their knowledge, let alone other children sleeping at your house. It’s not just a dumb mistake, holy shit do you have a bad take here.

      It’s not just a bad take but a) dangerous and b) criminal. For any kids sake I hope that the commentor you replied to has no access to children.
