Daddy Day Care Busted for “Blow as Babysistter” Trick [The Kids Aren't Alright]
Cocaine: hell of a drug, but not much for childcare. Imagine if your parents fed you Cocaine Crunch for breakfast. Well, this happened:
Newark police say 25-year-old Shaheed Wright of East Orange apparently put several baggies of cocaine inside his 4-year-old son’s jacket after a near brush with police. The boy later shared the drugs with three other 4-year-olds at the center on Friday.
So much for Twix and Slurpees for breakfast. You know how there was always that “cool” parent that’d let you get all sugarfreaked before dropping you and your friends off at school? Well, Mr. Wright, you’re him, times a million. Except you were busted by the kid’s teacher, who found one of the baggies in one of the his friends’ mouth. All four kids involved were taken to the hospital, and Wright’s son explained to police about the “candy” his dad gave him. Yeah. His dad told him it was candy.
The interesting stuff, though, is what you’re never going to read on 1010Wins. Like the criminal desperation that invokes you putting drugs in your kid’s jacket and telling him it’s candy. And the circumstance that puts someone in the position to do that in the first place. Or what happens to Wright’s child hereafter.
Anyway: 1010 reports that “Wright was charged with four counts of child endangerment and drug offenses,” and if he has any idea what’s good for him, he’s going to plea bargain the hell out of this.
In conclusion: Newark is apparently hell on earth.

sadder than sad
there is a school of thought that says the thugs and dealers are the entrepreurs of the hood, denied other avenues, and probably the enterprising type, if steered and educated
and then there’s the school of thought that says lock the d00d up
@DoctorJezebel: 20 years from now there will be no “Google” – only the mighty Omnigoog which will store the sum total of human knowledge and portion it out as it sees fit.

Somehow I kept reading this as “child endearment” instead of endangerment. I wonder what this kid will think 20 years from now after he googles his father.
