A Boulder County jury today will continue to deliberate the fate of Frederick Allen, a 32-year-old diabetic accused of drugging a University of Colorado student with insulin before raping her in February 2011.

The jurors heard closing arguments from attorneys Friday morning after a two week trial and deliberated for six hours Friday but were not able to reach a verdict. Allen faces nine felonies, including three counts of sexual assault, first-degree assault, two counts of second-degree assault and tampering with physical evidence, after being indicted by the Boulder County grand jury in January 2012.

According to the indictment, Allen met the victim at the Sundown Saloon on the Pearl Street Mall. The two previously had met, but had never really talked to each other. During the encounter in February 2011, Allen and the woman talked until the bar closed, at which point he offered to walk her to her nearby home.

At 5 p.m. Tuesday, after about 20 hours of deliberation, the jury went home for the evening, still unable to reach an unanimous verdict on a majority of the charges in the case.

Diabetic Frederick Allen convicted in insulin-rape case

A Boulder County jury has convicted a man of sexual assault after he was accused of using his insulin to drug then rape a woman.

The six felonies Allen was found guilty of were: sexual assault on a person incapable of appraising the nature of their conduct while armed with a deadly weapon; sexual assault on a person incapable of appraising the nature of their conduct causing serious bodily injury; sexual assault on a physically helpless victim causing serious bodily injury; two counts of second-degree assault and tampering with evidence.

Amazing, would never of thought someone would use insulin for that purpose, yet alone a diabetic person knowing what could of happened. Just hope this was an isolated
Incidence but have a feelinge probably not.

She was lucky to survive, I imagine :( You have to admire the Yanks - when they punish someone, they really punish them! 84 years 😱 Mind you, still doesn't deter people from committing the crimes :(

Well with what he's been found guilty of, they'll have used their guidelines which seems harsh.
I'd love to see an American court room in session because I'm sad
