What Were Daycare Workers In New Hampshire Busted Doing?

Daycare workers in New Hampshire are facing charges for doing something you'd never want people looking over your child to do. If you weren't already worried about what happens at these daycares when you're away, you might now!

This is shocking that they would even think about doing this. See what these workers were doing without parent permission below!

According to Boston 25 News, the owner and three workers at a daycare in New Hampshire are facing charges after allegedly sprinkling the children's food with melatonin without their parents' permission. Sally Dreckmann, Traci Innie, Kaitlin Filardo, and Jessica Foster have all been charged with 10 counts of endangering the welfare of a child, per Manchester police.

Melatonin is a known sleep aid, so it looks like they were trying to put these kids to bed. Yeah, you can't be doing that without the parents' permission. Sprinkling it on the food? That's so dark and twisted of these daycare workers in New Hampshire to do to kids! The four daycare workers in New Hampshire were arrested after an investigation that began in November of 2023.

Per Boston 25 News, Heather Hamel, a public information officer at the Manchester Police Department said, "Not having got permission from the parents, not knowing the medical history or the reaction that this child could have, having this in their system, it's concerning, I mean it could be an allergic reaction, it could be much worse." Right! You don't know what might happen or if any of these kids may have a reaction to the melatonin.

Boston 25 News reports that the Boston Children's Hospital says children under the age of 3 should never take melatonin. It can make them experience drowsiness, vomiting, and headaches.

While committing crimes may seem black and white (you either broke the law or you didn't), there are certainly some crimes that are dumber than others. Sometimes it's the crime itself that's wild, other times, it's the people committing said crimes. These are 5 of the craziest, cringeworthy crimes ever committed.

Crimes can happen anywhere, anytime, to anyone. However, it takes a very unique individual, a case study if you will, to commit some of these outrageously dumb crimes. Years ago, these criminals would have been featured on Spike TV or one of those America's Dumbest Criminal shows. Today, I'm not sure if those shows are around...and I'm certain Spike TV isn't around anymore. That's a story for another time.

Crimes can happen for a number of reasons. They may happen out of necessity. They could also happen on accident. These crimes, however, do not fall into those categories. These crimes are different. None of these would accidentally happen. They also aren't a matter of life or death. There's no ethics quiz here, or any matters of 'would you steal bread to support your family?' These crimes, and criminals, aren't straight up cringeworthy.

While all of these crimes are crazy and certainly cringeworthy, they also make for excellent conversation pieces. That's why I've gone and found five examples of the wildest stories that Dave and Chuck the Freak have talked about and made a list highlighting the best of the best. Let's be honest...what's better than reading a story about one of the craziest crimes ever committed? Or, watching Dave and Chuck the Freak talk about some of the dumbest crimes ever committed? Personally, I'm going with the funny storytellers.

They add their own two cents and perspectives on these stories that nobody else could provide. Not even those talking heads on the dumbest criminal shows. Am I the only one who remembers those? I feel like they were a staple on TruTV or VH1, but now all I can find on TruTV is Impractical Jokers, which is awesome but...you get it. Let's not delay! Here's the list!

Dave & Chuck the Freak talk about a man in Wisconsin who was arrested after lighting his own car on fire and being found naked, covered in liquid soap near a lakae. He is supposedly a licensed psychotherapist, works with 'magic mushrooms' and is "pretty much an expert in magic."

Dave & Chuck the Freak hear about a new Amazon vendor scam involving glue guns and head-lamps, or a potential windfall if you're James.

Dave & Chuck the Freak talk about a man in Dearborn, Michigan who exposed himself to someone at a Burlington Coat Factory. They are very confused when they learn about their hours and huge social media following. Then, they try to figure out what they even sell there.

Dave & Chuck the Freak talk about a man in Las Vegas, Nevada who stripped nude and danced on the gaming tables before he was restrained and arrested. Vegas, baby...

Dave & Chuck the Freak talk about a man in Illinois who accidentally shot himself in the leg whilst dreaming of burglars breaking into his house. Living the proverbial dream isn't always what it seems...
