At Chicago Heights Elementary, a first grade student brought in "candy" to class and handed it out to his friends. The little man had brought in dozens of bags of crack cocaine and was passing them out all over the place.
"He lives in a household where apparently there's drug dealing, and when he sees these little bags of rock cocaine around the house, they're telling him it's candy," said the Deputy Police Chief of Chicago Heights, Michael Camilli. Now there's a set of parents I wish I had when I was in first grade.
The 6 or 7 year old will not be disciplined since he didn't know what the hell he was doing. "He was a darling little child. The ruckus, I'm sure, upset him. It breaks your heart to see that." said Supt. Dollie Helsel.
