Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

MODERATORS
Apparently, since the article didn't bring up any sort of sex crimes, he did not discard it.
Where did he get the Benzos from?
I'm not sure but it does sound fishy as fuck.
I don't disagree. But you'd think the article would be more explicit if he was suspected of sexually assaulting the girls.
The parents showed up before he could. Also, one of the girls wasn't affected as much and was able to run defense.
He was trying to sexually assault them. There's no question here.
He has something fishy in mind - that's for certain.
But how can you say "there's no question" about whether he wanted to sexually assault them?
Maybe he wanted to kill them or something.
They can't say for sure because, thank goodness, it didn't happen. But there are very few good explanations for heavily drugging children and attempting to physically move them.
Might just be written with context they were given and not insinuation. Which is good. But yeah. It seems he was trying to be a predator here from the context.
Some news places wouldn't want to assume and put it in writing since that might "taint a jury pool" of they read about it before trial. Or a libel suit if the news places was wrong in their assumption.
I believe that sexual assault/rape was 100% his goal, but I'm not a new organization.
One of the girls didn't have any smoothie. She said he came downstairs multiple times to check if they were asleep.
Sounds fishy.
Sounds to me like one girl not wanting smoothie saved all her friends.
The article doesn’t mention that either but I read often that benzos are really common in the states, so likely a prescription.
