A Sports Drink Spiking Epidemic

Over the past couple weeks, I've written over and over again about Gatorade spikings. Well, I can't confirm that there was one Gatorade involved here (it's not exactly common in France), but this a pretty crazy situation. Obsessed French tennis father Christophe Fauviau was sentenced to eight years in prison today. He admitted to spiking the water bottles of 27 children who faced his son and daughter in tennis. "Not for one second did I think of hurting people. I realize now that I did," the former military pilot said. After Fauviau spiked the bottles with an anti-anxiety drug called Temesta, children complained of weak knees, dizziness, nausea or fainting. Fauviau actually is responsible for killing a kid. After a match against his son in 2003, 25-year-old Alexandre Lagardere complained of drowsiness. While driving home after the match, he crashed his car and died. Police believe he fell asleep at the wheel and that the children never knew what their father was doing.
