Criminals these days must deal with many factors, especially if they are involved in drugs. Sniffing dogs, DEA, INTERPOL, detectives, narcotics officers, informants and more are just a few of the hurdles they must outwit or avoid. But for those that can clear all these hurdles, there is one more defender of the law that they have to be prepared for. Toddlers.
Yes toddlers. To be more specific, in England there is 3 year old Kian Parlour, who recently cause an international drug ring to be found and closed. In a somewhat Clouseu-ish act, little Kian was able to do what no one else was.
As it turns out, Kian’s parents were holding onto several packages for their neighbors who were away on a vacation. This is nothing strange as like many neighbors the Parlour’s were doing this and had had it done for them while they were away. But Kian saw the packages stacked in the hallway and decided he needed to see what was inside. Once the packages were opened he presented the prize to his mother, who realized they were drugs and not candy. A quick call to the police and the neighbors’ holiday was at an end.
In total 640,000 pills of diazepam were found, all shipped from Sri Lanka. The neighbors were sentenced to 3 ½ and 2 ½ years individually. And roughly $57,000 worth of drugs were removed from the streets of England. All due to perhaps the youngest sleuth of all.
