I shop at Costco weekly, and seeing a middle eastern man pushing a flat cart around full of candy, and cigarettes is not that unusual. They stock there mini marts with purchases from there.

I understand that. But these guys were buying enough candy to fill a few pick-up trucks, were paying thousands of dollars in cash, were using a fake Costco ID, and one is being held by the FBI.

All I'm saying is that something's up.

I have been thinking about this and the mind can run away with bad thoughts. But, what IF candy was purchased, tainted with *something* and resealed before sale? Couldn't mini-marts (or any other store) sell candy that adults think is safe? Does this mean no candy from school parties, churches, or block parties - let alone trick-or-treating?
