A man, who secretly put an abortion pill in his girlfriend's drink, has been sentenced to 22 years in prison for attempting first-degree intentional homicide of an unborn child, the Christian Headlines website reports today (October 15, 2018).
Manuel Patel,45, was sentenced after admitting to slipping an abortion-inducing drug in his girlfriend's smoothie in 2007. The woman didn't drink it, but miscarried weeks later. Patel had been on the run from police for a decade.
Patel and his girlfriend had a child together in 2004. In September 2007 -- a month after she became pregnant again -- he took her to an ice cream shop in Appleton, Wisconsin, bought a smoothie and poured it in two different cups.
As she waited in the car, he put a powdery substance -- the abortion pill -- into her cup and gave it to her. She saw the the powder in the cup and never drank it. She sent it to a lab for testing and discovered it was RU-486.
