‘Eat This’: Cadet Spiked Shake, Forced Pills Into Girlfriend’s Mouth, Suit Claims

A former West Point cadet is facing a lawsuit after allegedly drugging his pregnant girlfriend, also a cadet, and forcing her to undergo an abortion while she was incapacitated. According to the New York Post ^[1], the incident took place in the couple’s barracks, where the woman was overcome with drowsiness after consuming a spiked shake. The suit claims that during this period, the cadet, identified as Suh, shoved abortion pills into Ms. Doe’s vagina and mouth, stating, “Eat this, it’s good for you.”

The Independent reported ^[2] that the cadet caused a miscarriage by administering the pills while the woman was knocked out. The lawsuit paints a grim picture of consent violations, alleging that the cadet exploited his partner’s vulnerable state to terminate the pregnancy without her active participation or consent. Following the incident, the cadet reportedly proceeded to attend graduate school, a detail highlighted in reports from The Independent.

The case has drawn attention to the culture within the prestigious military academy, where cadets live and train in close quarters. The New York Post ^[1] notes that the plaintiff, referred to as Ms. Doe to protect her identity, was also a cadet at West Point. The legal filing describes the event as a “gruesome assault,” emphasizing the physical and emotional toll on the victim. The allegation that the cadet forced the pills into her mouth while she was drowsy suggests a deliberate attempt to ensure the medication was ingested against her will.

As of now, the outcome of the legal proceedings remains uncertain, with no public statement from the academy addressing the specific allegations. The case serves as a stark reminder of the complexities of consent and power dynamics, even within highly disciplined institutions. For now, the focus remains on the lawsuit’s claims and the alleged actions of the former cadet, as reported by both the New York Post ^[1] and The Independent ^[2].
