Boston Police and Fire crews responded to a medical emergency at a public housing complex Saturday and discovered a bizarre scene, including a dead person, dozens of sex toys, drugs, drug paraphernalia, and four kids apparently being hidden by an adult.

The Boston Herald broke the news about the strange scene Boston emergency services uncovered at the Mary Ellen McCormack Housing complex, which is run by the Boston Public Housing Authority, after obtaining public records about the incident.

Despite the shocking nature of the story, other New England-area media outlets have mostly left the story alone, with the exception of TB Daily News.

So far, many significant questions raised in the original reporting remain unanswered, including who the parents of the children are and whether there are indications that human trafficking occurred. None of the identities of the people involved have been released, though a few Boston City Councilors have told the Herald they want to have hearings.

Here’s what the Herald originally reported:

Four children living in squalid conditions while being hidden from first responders were found in an apartment filled with “alcohol, drugs, sex toys” and a dead man, according to an incident report and outraged officials.

“This is sickening,” said At-Large City Councilor Michael Flaherty. “I was informed by people at the scene that there were drugs, alcohol, sex toys all around the apartment as well as a dead body on the floor.”

That fire department report, obtained by the Herald and confirmed by police response, states that a BFD crew was sent to Old Colony Avenue Saturday morning for a call that a man had gone into cardiac arrest and required medical attention. That address is the Mary Ellen McCormack Housing complex run by the city.

However, according to the incident report, firefighters found more than just a routine medical emergency.

“The apartment was in extremely unsanitary conditions. Approximately 6 adults, who appeared to be males, were seen in the apartment,” they wrote, saying they subsequently found “four children in the back bedroom being hidden by an adult male from first responders.”

According to the incident report the children ranged from ages 5 to 10.

…

It is unclear whether the children were relatives of the people the fire department described as “appearing to be male” or if they lived in the apartment.

Flaherty, Public Safety chairman on the council, told the Herald Monday night the dead body found on the floor was “from an apparent overdose” and that “a man wearing a wig claiming to be the father” of the kids was found in a back bedroom.

Multiple sources tell the Herald some of the adults were dressed as women when first responders arrived at the scene.
