"I can't say if it's a product defect or if it's tampering at this point in time," Bradford County sheriff's Lt. Kenneth Hinds told WJXT-TV. There was also some speculation that the candy was left in the sun, the liquid inside was boiling or had some chemical reaction.

that's some seriously defective candy! :Q
Just don't leave it outside. :D

You make jokes (and a lot of them are quite witty and funny), but seriously this could have been deadly. I'm wondering if they are chemical burns or heat burns? I wonder if she would have had the whole thing in her mouth and then it exploded......could have been nasty

How the heck are they going to identify the manufacturer of a half-eaten jawbreaker?

It's not like it's a power tool or a microwave with a mean streak, it's a solid piece of flavored sugar.
