00:00alarming development in the investigation into Young Scooter's death.
00:04Young Scooter, an artist, Atlanta rapper who was signed to Future,
00:09had done a lot of music with Future and Gucci Mane.
00:12He died while running from police who had showed up at his house.
00:18And what police, in being very open about everything that happened,
00:23they said, look, we got a phone call saying that there was a domestic incident happening
00:29at this house and that's why they went.
00:31Right. A bunch of guys allegedly beating up a woman.
00:33Right. And for some reason, once the police showed up, Young Scooter ran.
00:38Police said he jumped over a fence and had a leg injury and that's how he died.
00:43Well, now we've learned more about the 911 call that got police to go to that house.
00:49And in fact, the person who made the 911 call, a woman named Demi Blanco, has been arrested.
00:56The reason for her arrest is they're alleging, at least, that this was a case of swatting,
01:02where someone calls the police and says, oh, there's something horrible happening at house
01:06and the police show up with guns out and everything trying to rescue them.
01:10Yeah, it's something you've seen happen more and more, Charles, these incidents.
01:14And the police, I mean, thinking something horrible is happening,
01:17you know, go in there, the armor, the big guns, and people can get hurt.
01:21But Demi Blanco telling a different side of this.
01:25And she says that there was a very good reason that she called 911 to report a domestic incident.
01:31She says she was the victim.
01:32It looks like I was trying to set this man up because you guys don't have Part B.
01:37I'm giving you Part B. I'm giving you what led up to the call.
01:41I was physically abused, so I called to protect myself.
01:46I never had any intentions to get anybody hurt.
01:49I was the one that was getting hurt.
01:51So this is interesting.
01:53I mean, what police have said is that when they got to the house,
01:57they didn't see any evidence of a domestic incident.
02:00And that's why they didn't address that.
02:04But she is saying that she 100 percent was.
02:07And now that she's been arrested for this, that's going to be.
02:10Yeah, look, if that is the case, Charles, and she is telling the truth, that obviously changes everything.
02:15I hear what you guys are saying, but I've kind of been following this case as it's been going.
02:20And if you listen to Demetria's first call, the initial call she made to 911,
02:25her story was, one, if she's claiming that she was the one getting beaten,
02:29in that call, this woman that's making the 911 call does not sound like a woman that's in distress
02:34or currently being beaten.
02:36She's describing what she's seeing someone else going through.
02:39So it was kind of crazy to hear her go on Instagram Live
02:42and come up with this whole new narrative that it was her,
02:45because why wouldn't she just say that initially on the police call?
02:47I'm being beaten. I'm being pummeled. I'm in danger.
02:51She's saying this woman, you've got to help this woman.
02:54This naked woman is at this house. I'm seeing that.
02:56So this whole thing just makes no sense whatsoever.
02:59And then on top of that, police didn't even know who she was.
03:02She pretty much put a target on herself by going on Instagram Live
03:05and explaining, quote, unquote, her side to the story.
03:08Right, because they wouldn't have known who actually made the call.
03:11Exactly.
03:12Although they would have investigated and traced the number.
03:15Right, but an interesting twist here in the aftermath of the tragic death of young Scooter.
