Matthew Warren Farson makes an appearance in Lewis County Superior Court in July at the Lewis County Law and Justice Center in Chehalis.
A Curtis man charged last year with drugging and sexually assaulting a 17-year-old girl was sentenced to 15 months in prison Wednesday.
Matthew Warren Farson pleaded guilty Jan. 20 to indecent liberties without forcible compulsion. He was originally charged in July with second-degree rape.
The girl, who was living in the same house as Farson, told Centralia police officers at Providence Centralia Hospital that Farson gave her two shots of vodka and about six beers on June 1, according to court documents.
The girl said she was sick and went to bed. She told detectives Farson followed her and got down next to her. The girl said she passed out and woke up to Farson inappropriately touching her.
Farson allegedly denied touching the girl, but admitted to detectives that he gave her alcohol and Seroquel pills without her knowing what they were.
Seroquel is a prescription anti-depressant, according to the FDA.
