A New London mother told police officers she was “so excited” to have strangled her 4-year-old son when they responded to her apartment earlier this month for what they thought was a report of a woman swinging a bat at a car in her parking lot, new court records reveal.

Instead, they found 33-year-old Tiffany Farrauto outside the building who calmly told them she had strangled her son and tried to fill his mouth with CBD gummy candies, according to an arrest warrant affidavit unsealed Tuesday morning.

“You can take me away ... because my son is already dead and is in the house,” she told officers, according to the affidavit.
