"It was not disguised," Friedlander said at a news conference Wednesday in Yaphank. " … This was packaged for to be enticing to people that like candy. Typically children like candy. And it was clearly labeled saying what [narcotics] it contained."

"Typically children like candy"
Newsflash - adults like candy too.
Now if these mopes are actually selling this product to children .. Different story. But .. we haven't heard anything to that effect.
