Re: drug addicted family
Calling the cops anonymously will not give them the right to come into the house. It will only allow them to watch the house. When they ultimately raid the house they may arrest all occupants. Even if you have a separate enterance, it is likely they will arrest everyone, which would endanger your child too as they could very well take the child away.
You cannot stay there this way. You may contact my office. It is not too far away from your home. We can discuss alternatives for you.
Good Luck.
