***7 Year Old Boy Found with Heroin at School***

A 7 year old in Pennsylvania was found with bags of heroin in his pockets. He had given a few bags to some of his classmates as well. After he was caught he said that he found the bags of drugs outside on the playground but finally admitted that he had brought them in from home after some questioning. The boy's grandmother was placed under arrest for endangering child welfare as well as drug offenses.

56 year old Pauline Bilinski-Munion had been babysitting her grandson and a 1 year old and had lost track of the drugs while she was at the house. The bags were all labeled as "Victoria's Secret". The boy's teachers had overheard him talking about the drugs and found nine bags in all. The mother of another child found a bag in her son's pocket when they were walking later that night.

The school notified the authorities as soon as the drugs were found. The district attorney however said that the school did not contact the parents or the district attorney's office quickly. He stated that they were very vague in what they told the parents about the incident. He told CNN that the school didn't call 911, didn't make sure that all of the children were okay by calling emergency personnel, didn't do a sweep to try and find any other bags of heroin, and didn't keep the kids where they were.

Bail was set for $25,000.
