Trash Man Drugged His Girlfriend so He Could Play Video Games in Peace

Man convicted of drugging his girlfriend so that he could play video games.

A totally garbage man admitted in court to drugging his girlfriend so that he could play video games with his friend distraction-free. Today, the man can play as many video games as he wants without any interruptions from his girlfriend, because she is now his ex-girlfriend.

The 23-year-old German man was convicted of the assault this week. The crime occurred last August, and he confessed what he'd done to his then-girlfriend the following day.

"I only put four or five drops into her tea," the man told the judge, according to German newspaper WAZ.

That night, the woman fell into a sleep that lasted from the time she got home from work, around 10 p.m., to midday the next day. She told the court that she also kept nodding off on her drive to work when she finally woke up. 

"Your girlfriend slept long and deeply, which didn't harm her, but this is certainly premeditated bodily harm," the judge told the man. 

The man, besides doing some batshit crazy things for the love of video games, was also on drugs at the time—another reason why the relationship ended, the ex-girlfriend said in court. 

"It was stupid, but now I'm on a straight path," said the man. He has been charged €500, or roughly $550, for his crime.
