Man drugged children with Nyquil to sneak out of the house
Posted January 23rd, 2008 by minortopics | via www.foxnews.comSurely, he must have used the older, more potent Nyquil, because the new stuff is nothing more placebo. Of course, that is besides the point as this father is a scumbag that will hopefully get his due carma in jail.
In court, Richard Bowen did not admit to giving one girl Nyquil so she would sleep, but prosecutors said he admitted it during phone calls from jail.
Police said Bowen was responsible for his 8- and 9-year-old daughters while his wife worked overnight. On several occasions between February and May, he allegedly gave the cold medicine to the 9-year-old, then put both girls to bed before leaving to visit his mistress.
