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.”

      Could you point out where it says that? I’m not trying to defend this guy in any way shape or form, but I’m not into hysteria and making things up, either. Even the most sensational report only offered the opinion that you don’t touch kids unless you have bad intent. And that’s an opinion, not a statement of the perp’s actual intent. Dude f’d up bad, but it doesn’t mean he’s instantly a molester.

      Edit: this is to the people that reported my deleted comment as “rape apology”. That is some deep and utter BS. There was NO rape, and you should be ashamed of yourselves for being the Reddit Boston Bomber squad or every Nextdoor tool that every car backfire is gunshots, every suicide is a conspiracy, and every boom is a terrorist bomb in your little town. You got called out for making stuff up so you made the comment go away. The dude f’d up, is paying th price, and if he molested the kids he would have gotten charged with that too. Nice job making every man a molester, and I can’t believe you made me even defend some tool based on your prejudice that every man is a molester.

        It’s literally in the article. One of the girls talked about him separating them and checking how out they were. It didn’t elevate to actual rape because they got help.
