Police raided the apartment at 89 Kensington Ave., Apt. 11, after receiving complaints regarding a couple who lived there who were allegedly dealing drugs, Sgt. John M. Delaney said. Officers from the BADGE unit also supplied leads, he said.
Entering quietly through an unlocked rear door, police found three children, ages 2, 3 and 4, playing in the kitchen. They walked into the living room and found the female suspect lying naked on the couch, Delaney, aide to Commissioner William J. Fitchet, said.
Police asked the woman to get dressed and the officers took care of the children, getting them out of the area so they could search the apartment.
The 3-year-old then asked the female suspect, her mother, if she could have some candy, Delaney said. The mother told the girl that she didn't want her eating any more candy, he said.
When Sgt. Julio Toledo put his hand out to get the candy from the child, he saw that two bags of heroin were inside her pocket, along with some small wrapped hard candies and chocolates, Delaney said.
"The young child then stated, 'Uh, oh that's Daddy's,"' Delaney said.

Eh, if the kid confuses it for candy and dies, they'll make more.
