German 'Romeo' drugs girlfriend to keep playing video games for hours on end

A German court has fined a 23-year-old man €500 for giving his girlfriend sleeping pills so that he could keep playing video games with a friend for as long as they wanted.

“I only put four or five drops into her tea,” the man told the court in Castrop-Rauxel, a former mining city in the eastern part of the Ruhr area in Germany, as he admitted to the crime, the Westdeutsche Allgemeine Zeitung daily reported.

In August 2014, the man was enjoying playing on his games console with a pal when his then girlfriend came back home at around 10pm after a busy day at work.

All she wanted was peace and quiet, not the cacophony of machine-gun fire coming from a buzzing video game. In fact, she finally got what she wanted.

The woman recalled she had slept until noon the following day after drinking the drugged tea.
