Ex-West Point cadet sued for secretly drugging pregnant girlfriend with abortion pills
A former West Point cadet who admitted to secretly drugging his pregnant girlfriend and administering abortion medication to her without her knowledge or consent is now being sued over the 2022 incident.
The woman, identified as "Jane Doe" in court documents, sued Caleb T. Suh in New York Supreme Court on Oct. 28, accusing him of assault and battery and seeking damages.
Doe and Suh were cadets at the U.S. Military Academy at West Point when Doe learned she was pregnant in January 2022, according to the complaint.
The lawsuit alleges Suh repeatedly pressured Doe to have an abortion, while she told him she intended to keep the baby. Suh later appeared to support her decision but allegedly used her identification to create an online pharmacy account in her name and obtain abortion medication without her knowledge.

On Feb. 4, 2022, Suh brought a drink he described as a pregnancy protein shake to Doe's barracks room, according to the complaint. She became sick and drifted in and out of consciousness after drinking it.
Suh later admitted in federal court that he administered abortion medication to Doe without her knowledge or consent. Hours later, Doe became seriously ill and was taken to a hospital, where doctors confirmed she was suffering a miscarriage.
Doe reported the incident to the Army Criminal Investigation Division at West Point in May 2022.
Suh was charged in federal court in June 2026 and pleaded guilty June 30 to assault resulting in substantial bodily injury to a dating partner.
Suh admitted creating an online pharmacy account using his girlfriend's identity to obtain abortion medication without her knowledge or consent. He also admitted to obtaining Xanax to sedate her before administering the abortion pills.
"My intent was use the Xanax to unwittingly sedate my girlfriend so that I could then administer the abortion pills, which I had obtained via the online pharmacy," Suh said, according to the complaint.

Suh also admitted deceiving his girlfriend into believing he supported the pregnancy before giving her the medication. He acknowledged that she later miscarried "as a result of the abortion pills that I had administered without her knowledge and consent."
After leaving West Point, Suh attended Cornell University, graduating in May 2026, before enrolling in a master's program at Columbia University's Mailman School of Public Health.
A spokesperson for Cornell told Fox News Digital that when Suh was admitted as a transfer student, he answered "No" when asked whether he had been found responsible for a disciplinary violation at a previous school. Cornell said his previous university had reported he was in good academic standing and eligible to return.
A person with knowledge of the matter told Fox News Digital that Columbia was unaware of Suh's status until the New York Times contacted the university Friday and that the school took swift action. Applications to the school do not require applicants to disclose prior criminal convictions, the person said.
Suh asked a federal judge in October to postpone his sentencing until January 2027, in part to complete his semester at Columbia. Federal prosecutors did not oppose the request, and U.S. District Judge Philip M. Halpern granted it.
Doe is seeking compensatory and punitive damages.
"Our complaint sets out that our client was forced to endure an unimaginable trauma and was robbed of a pregnancy she wanted, while Mr. Suh has since managed to attend not one, but two ivy league schools. We are outraged on her behalf and plan to aggressively pursue justice," Russell Kornblith, partner at Wigdor LLP, said in a statement shared with Fox News Digital.
West Point and an attorney for Suh did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
