The City of Angels has always done things their way, and that includes new innovations in the child care industry. To heck with traditional day care, we’ve got our own combination drug house/daycare! Why be just a daycare when you could be so much more?
According to the LA Times, a raid conducted on a duplex in a local neighborhood found 14 kilos of cocaine stacked neatly in cubbies lined with teddy bears. Gun racks were being used to dry fingerpaintings and the bags of marijuana were labeled “science project.” The $300,000 in cash was being used for the “math program” and the suspects claimed that having the kids help count the money was teaching them vital number and presidential recognition skills.
All right, maybe I am exaggerating a bit, but they did find all the items listed above in the other half of the duplex. The only item that shared the same space as the daycare was the cash.
Isn’t that one of every parent’s worst nightmares? To leave your child in a daycare setting and then find that something beyond crazy was going on and you had no clue? You are already ceding control of your child to another person, which is difficult enough, but having the cops come in with a warrant and find all of that can’t be the best feeling in the world.
Although if you come across a place called “Candyman Daycare,” don’t assume the owner is just a little overfond of Sammy Davis Jr.
