ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Cuckooing

Cuckooing is when bad people go into someone else's house and use it to do bad things. It's like if your friend came over to play, but instead of playing nicely, they took your toys and made a big mess. Except instead of toys, they're using someone else's house to do things like sell drugs or do other illegal stuff. This can be really scary for the people who live in the house because they might not know the bad stuff is going on and could get in trouble too. It's important for everyone to be aware of cuckooing and to tell an adult if they think it might be happening.
