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.

Why is this guy whining about his life being ruined? The courts might not be able to prove he was going to rape any children but that little girl texting for help could tell what he was planning.
What he did was at a minimum enough to form some seriously fucked up core memories that stay with them for life. Imagine trying to trust anyone outside of your family ever again after getting drugged by your friend's dad.
Sobbing about his life being upset, fuck's sake.
Why benzos? I feel like he would have not raised suspicion or gotten in the same trouble if he’d just let the girls eat some melatonin gummies or something. Wouldn’t even need to be sketchy about it.
So “drug them”, just not as hard?
C’mon man, these are kids. They’re not even all his kids. It’s a sleepover. They stay up late or even to the wee hours of the morning and make noise, watch movies, whatever. That’s what you do as a kid on a sleepover. Giving them any substance to try to make them sleep is a ridiculous idea on multiple levels.
If it was just about sleep he wouldn't be facing any serious time. This was attempted rape.
Two years is not enough for attempted rape.
There's no evidence of attempted rape right?
The 2 years was specifically for drugging kids so they would go to sleep because there was no evidence of anything like sexual assault.
An article was linked in other comment threads, there was a clear start and an uncomfortable girl who texted her mom with absolute fear of being raped.
Something a lot more than moving them around may have happened if she didn't send that text. So yes, no clear attempt at sexually assaulting the girls, but the amount of effort he went to.... Doesn't give me the feeling that this was only about a good night's rest.
That said, I'd prefer the girls safe over him getting more time in prison any day of the week.
Smoothies don’t take long to make, but in terms of giving him a chance to think twice, it’s an eternity. What an unbelievably reckless decision.
“My whole life is destroyed,” he told the court. “Everything that was important to me up until that point is gone.”
Welcome to the consequences of your own actions, dumbass.
Of course it was Lake Oswego.
What’s that mean?
Lake O is the rich Portland suburb, and this is such a stupid rich white man crime.
