Who is Demi Blanco? Atlanta police arrest woman behind false 911 call linked to Young Scooter’s death

Demi Blanco, a.k.a. Demetria Spencer, is the woman police arrested in Atlanta for allegedly calling in a fake 911 that brought police to the scene where rapper Young Scooter was fatally injured.

According to XXL Magazine and TMZ, Demi Blanco, a Baddies reality TV star, confessed on Instagram Live that she made the 911 call. She initially reported seeing a naked woman getting attacked but later said she called to safeguard herself from physical abuse.

As per TMZ and Balleralert, on March 28, 2025, Blanco made a 911 call stating that she had seen gunshots and a bloody woman being beaten at a house on William Nye Drive SE. She presented no evidence to the police for her accusations, but the police came face-to-face with Young Scooter (Kenneth Bailey) and another guy running away from the location. While fleeing, Scooter received a thigh injury that soon claimed his life.

Information about Spencer's 911 call

Blanco's 911 call had multiple allegations, including physical abuse, drug dealing, and a potential child in jeopardy—none of which could be found or confirmed by the police when they arrived. XXL Magazine says that initially, she reported seeing a woman getting beaten on the outside of the house, then altered her story and stated that she had called to receive protection from abuse. She stated,

"I was physically abused. So, I called to protect myself. I never had any intentions to get anybody hurt."

The police concluded that Blanco's conflicting statements were suspicious and questioned the genuineness of the emergency. Without any physical evidence to support her statement, the investigators concluded that the report was unfounded and arrested her.

Legal implications of false emergency calls

False emergency calls, also known as "swatting," are a growing concern for law enforcement officers as they can lead to unintended harm. Legislators argue that these activities may result in unnecessary injuries, property destruction, and death.

Blanco's incident is focused on the consequences of providing false information to emergency authorities. In Georgia, individuals who are found guilty of transmitting a false public alarm face severe legal consequences. Police still warn people about the danger of forming hoaxes, and it encourages citizens to wisely use 911.
