Teacher accused of sexually assaulting female student blames Parkinson’s meds

A high school chemistry teacher and track coach who allegedly sexually assaulted a 16-year-old female student is blaming the medication he takes for Parkinson’s disease.

Police say the incident occurred on June 2 when the teacher, Dale Snyder, and the student were putting away chairs after graduation ceremonies at Milton High School in Milton, Mass.

Snyder, 64, allegedly asked the female student to come back to his vacant classroom. Then, according to the unnamed student, he tried to kiss her several times. He also put his hand on her leg.

Snyder’s attorney, Thomas Lawton, says the medication he is taking for Parkinson’s disease may trigger impulsive conduct and could have increased the chemistry teacher’s libido.

It’s unclear exactly which drug or cocktail of drugs the 27-year Milton High teacher has been taking. However, Parkinson’s drugs are known to cause hypersexuality (as well as compulsive eating and gambling).

Snyder has no prior police record. He’s also a member of the Massachusetts State Track Coaches Association Hall of Fame, notes CBS Boston.

Just because it doesn't happen to all doesn't mean it won't happen to one.   Side effects don't happen to all.

FWIW, there was a guy that got acquitted for looking at child porn because somehow someway the drugs he was taking affected his brain and it was verified.

Of course he's white. 

So let me get this straight, this is how a white guy responds to this thread? LMMFAO WOW! 

Doesn't matter that he raped a 16 year old and "blamed" it on his medication. But since he's white, at least he was a teacher.

White people must be so proud of you right now. Wow!
