The (EPD) arrested five people in connection with the overdose death of a 13-month-old last year.

Officers found the toddler unconscious on April 24, 2024, when they responded to an emergency call at a home in the 1400 block of Casino Road. According to police, the responding officers found blue pills near the child and smelled a “burning odor they associated with fentanyl consumption.”

The Snohomish County Medical Examiner鈥檚 Office later ruled the child鈥檚 cause of death was drugs/poisoning.

“Investigators conducted interviews with individuals who resided at the home or visited the home,” EPD stated on social media. “Throughout the course of their investigation, it was determined that the involved parties had knowledge of the use of narcotics there.”

Additionally, investigators said they have video evidence of the suspects using fentanyl in front of young children. A search warrant also uncovered paraphernalia used to consume narcotics in most rooms of the house, according to police.

“Fentanyl use, even indirectly, poses a serious danger to children,” EPD continued in its statement. “A small amount of fentanyl residue can be lethal to children, as the drug can be more potent to a baby or toddler’s smaller body and lack of opioid tolerance. Pills can look like candy to children, especially when they’re brightly colored.”

All suspects were booked into the Snohomish County Jail.
