Logic

  • An infant dies after being fed liquid cocaine hidden in a liquid baby formula can. The baby's mother stole it from the couple she cleans for, who reportedly have a four-month-old baby themselves. Turns out the couple is smuggling cocaine across the border, using babies from the husband's corporate daycare as accessories to make it easier. But when the couple hands over the cans of formula, stored in their kitchen cabinet, for testing, only two of six were found to be cocaine. The rest were formula. Why keep them all in the same place? The techs couldn't tell until they removed the labels which ones had been tampered with, so why risk giving your client the wrong one? It's also not clear how long they keep the babies; the housekeeper was under the impression the latest one was theirs and the wife had been travelling with him several times over the past three weeks, so at least that long—why risk giving your product to the baby and a) now having less product and b) killing the baby?
