Man Accused Of Drugging Wife To Stop Her Nagging Complaint: Woman Found Vicodin In Her Ice Cream

POSTED: 11:25 a.m. EDT June 19, 2003

STEVENS POINT, Wis. -- A Stevens Point man is accused of drugging his wife with a prescription painkiller, telling investigators she was nagging him for failing to do some chores.

A criminal complaint filed in Portage County says Gary Guinn put Vicodin in some ice cream he bought for his wife.

When she bit into something bitter, she spit it out and reported it to the ice cream stand and police. A sample was sent to the state crime lab in Madison, which determined the presence of Vicodin.

When detectives questioned Guinn, he allegedly told them his wife had been nagging him after she returned from a trip because he failed to do some work he had promised to do.

The complaint says Guinn had the Vicodin because of recent surgery.

A court date is scheduled July 14.

"A husband that immature and violent deserves some jail time and a hefty divorce pay out to teach him a lesson."

He's the violent one and deserves jail time for using a legal sedative to calm his wife down? This article's about you now - isn't it......

Is this "husband" a doctor?! What gives him the right to give someone a prescription drug who is:

a. not licensed to prescrible or dispense medicine to others b. against their will and consent.

This is little different than martial rape, imo.

Anything a man says after that is the start of a new argument.

Not everything. Some words are permitted and some are mandatory.

"I am sorry for not listenting to what you said"
"I will try better to understand you next time"
"I love you" (mandatory)
"Yes, you are still as beautiful as you were the day I met you"
"I really like your hair"

My wife's BD is tomorrow and I was thinking of getting her a new Vacuum Cleaner

Make sure it's a wet-dry vac, although I don't think there's a lot of blood with strangulation by vacuum cleaner hose.

Yeah dude, you're heading into dangerous territory there. Go to your local florist and have the clerk help you pick out flowers for a nice bouquet. A nice idea is a few roses, stargazer lilies, carnations, lots of baby's breath. It all depends on your budget, but just plain roses are boring. Maybe a nice piece of jewelry, though not on the scale of Quilla's ton of ice, lol! Dinner at her favorite restaurant is good too :)

I'm a dudette.

BTW, notice anything different about me?

Does this dress make my butt look fat?

(There are no correct answers to these questions, but if you give the wrong answer, you're dead meat.)

the only problem is... we've been married for 32 years and she knows all my moves... probably even some moves I've forgotten... Nope, best bet is an appliance (a non-battery appliance).

Well, the answer to a channel surfing male is to get up and walk away. Go read a book, or better yet, scrub the floor again.

Or go to some other TV.

There is never an answer for a guy who has to endure a yapping female. If I simply got up and walked away, I might feel a vase on the back of my skull.

As they say in the military, "We can neither confirm nor deny...."

LOL. A far more sensible approach. I wonder why the husband in the article didn't just take them himself.
