Two years ago, Real World Police published exclusive footage from the 2016 arrest of rapper "DaBaby." We followed up on that by publishing exclusive surveillance, body cam, and interrogation footage associated with DaBaby's 2020 arrest in Miami, and five months ago, we again published exclusive surveillance, body cam, and interrogation footage from a Miami shooting that involved DaBaby's entourage.
Today, we revisit DaBaby's 2020 arrest, bringing you never-before-seen footage showing what happened when the police arrived on scene. For completeness, the surveillance footage is included in this video, however that footage is followed with more — new — footage of DaBaby's show promoters just before the rapper gets arrested, as well as footage of Miami police officers discussing the issue of DaBaby's property with hotel management.

![Police clear entire mall after rapper 9lokkNine targeted by rival gang
Jacquavius Dennard Smith, better known as the rapper 9lokkNine, is best known for his songs 10 Percent and 223s (featuring YNW Melly). In part because of this channel, Mr. Nine is also known for getting arrested, like, all the time.
Despite Quays gravity-defying hairstyle, gang-leader lifestyle, and [no joke] 40-foot-long rap sheet, Mr. Smiths interactions with law enforcement are consistently among of the most polite on this channel. He has a job to do; they have a job to do. No hard feelings, right?
But where does that come from? Who taught the AFNF gang leader to be a gentleman?
Meet Jovita Lawna Anthony. MotherNine. Who showed up at the mall because she heard on Facebook that 9lokk had gone R.I.P. after two dudes opened up on him in the mall parking lot.
Turned out 9lokk (Quay to his mom) was totally fine. Well, apart from the RICO case that he didnt know was coming. That one is probably gonna sting.
As to the two guys with bad aim — allegedly Treyvon Jaheim Graham and Joshua Caleb Holder — Graham has been charged with four counts of attempted second degree murder, one prohibited possessor charge, and discharging a firearm in public. The first four counts each carry a potential life sentence. Holders charges in relation to this incident have been rolled into the RICO case against him, which is being prosecuted by the Office of Statewide Prosecution.
Some history:
Floridas Office of Statewide Prosecution is a division within the Office of the Attorney General. Their mission is to investigate and prosecute organized crime that crosses jurisdictional boundaries, and to assist other law enforcement agencies in their efforts against organized crime. In 2019 - 2020, the Statewide Prosecutors conviction rate was an intimidating 99%, though it should be noted that the figure only includes defendants who reached a final disposition.(Excluding, for example, defendants that died or - a bit more puzzling - had their charges dropped.)
In 1993, a report by the Office of the Auditor General concluded that there was no consensus on appropriate performance measures for the Office of Statewide Prosecution. Recommendations were made for performance measures with greater validity than those in use at the time, with conviction rate among them. That same report also pointed out potential issues with that metric.
In December 2001, a report by the Florida Prosecuting Attorneys Association argued that the Office of Statewide Prosecution engaged in jurisdictional overreach and encouraged forum shopping by law enforcement agencies. The report further stated that the lack of cooperation between the Office of Statewide Prosecution and the State Attorneys Offices was wasteful, resulting in duplicative work. The Association argued that the friction had serious consequences — including the reversal of a conviction on appeal — and that the Office of Statewide Prosecution cases was handling its cases at twenty times the cost to the state attorneys.
Tensions were clearly high, and the Florida Legislature directed Floridas Office of Program Policy Analysis and Government Accountability (OPPAGA) to examine cost-effectiveness and efficiency, economic viability, and jurisdictional authority of the Office of Statewide Prosecution and the state attorneys. Its conclusion, in a nutshell, was that the parties need to grow up and figure it out.
Law enforcement and regulatory agencies may take a case to either the state attorney or the Office of Statewide Prosecution, as they consider appropriate. This choice enhances Floridas ability to aggressively fight crime, but it creates the potential for tension between the two prosecutorial entities. Both the state attorneys and the statewide prosecutor need to make an effort to communicate better.
An interesting item of note that I came across while researching the above: the word gang appears nowhere in the Office of Statewide Prosecutions annual report for the last three years. It appears in every annual report for the eight years prior. Is a shift underway? Time will tell.

![Homophobic Z-list celebrity trespassed from Red Roof Inn with male companion
The short version is that I had no intention of publishing this footage, until Benzino changed my mind.
Lil Nas X was the main event at the BET Music Awards in June 2021, where he performed his hit single “Montero.” He closed out that performance by kissing one of his male dancers. Oh, heavens. What has the world come to. Two grown men kissing each other on TV? On BET, that last bastion of morality on cable? Someone had better call Benzino. He always has misplaced outrage to spare.
Just think! His kid could see that and turn gay himself! Or even worse, he might become tolerant of people who are different from him. Maybe even accepting! Nuh uh. No. No way. Benzino needed to step up. That... stuff. Its wrong.
He took to Instagram: That s# BET pulled yesterday was lame asf. It was too uncomfortable, too irresponsible, too forced and too irrelevant to the awards. Homie ain’t even hot like that for music anymore anyway. It’s a shame what all this is comming [sic] to.” Taking his inspiration from luminary of love Louis Farrakhan, Benzino even referred to Old Town Road as Satanic.
I bought ol town road for ZINO [his son], he knows every word but all the satanic s#. Im just not with. I mean how do you explain s# like this to your kid? [that gay people exist?] I got nothing but respect and love for the gay community but that aint it, I could see if he was pooping [??] but it was unexpected and unnecessary. I didnt care for the Madonna kiss either. I could see if they way [sic] dating. Now I hope I dont offend anyone because this post wasnt meant for that. Its just my opinion of the production. Only God judges.
Benzino subsequently learned that there are, in fact, judges other than the big dude in the sky. He caught a lot of well-deserved heat and deleted his own Instagram post. Then Instagram deleted his account, though I am not sure if that was in relation to this particular incident. Believe it or not, I rarely pay attention to the guy.
But I did see his subsequent doubling-down non-apology apology interview. Which prompted me to revisit the Red Roof Inn footage. It was exactly as I had remembered. This is it.
And yes, I understand that two men sharing a motel room does not mean that they had their own Montero. To loosely quote Benzino, Its the optics of the situation. Couple that with the reality that he contrasted himself and his companion to an imaginary white couple named John and Bill Summerfield (who for some reason would be exempt from checkout times) along with some other clues, and I guess its possible that they were just planning Benzinos next diss track. But, yknow, the optics.
I want to be clear about something: Benzino or anyone elses sexual orientation is not newsworthy on its own. Those years are fortunately decades in the past, where they should stay. Fundamentally, this is not about anyones sexual orientation. It is about the hypocrisy of a mildly-public figure who uses his position to marginalize and belittle others. Others who happen to be, in his own words just like me.
In 1989, Newt Gingrich began spreading rumors about Representative Thomas Foley being gay. In response, openly-gay Representative Barney Frank threatened to out five closeted top Republican officials, saying, “If they don’t cut the cr#&, something’s going to happen, and I’m going to happen it...and my list will be accurate.”
The rumors immediately stopped.
That was the genesis of The Frank Rule. As Barney Frank put it, “I think there’s a right to privacy. But the right to privacy should not be a right to hypocrisy. And people who want to demonize other people shouldn’t then be able to go home and close the door and do it themselves.”
That, I am onboard with.
Public figures who use their position to marginalize and belittle others should not be surprised when anyone else shines light on their hypocrisy.
Q: But when did Benzino marginalize or belittle gay people? He is just being canceled for having an opinion!
A: Yeah, okay. https://rwp.yt/bzt
Benzino, gay people were definitely around when you were younger. The movement, as you call it, has existed longer than you or anyone else. I am sorry if you didnt get to be yourself. I dont know what thats like, and it sounds pretty terrible. Bur that doesnt excuse the way you act. Times have changed, man. Get with them. Take advantage of them. For your own sake, if not for anyone elses.
In the words of the great Ali G, Without realness, we is nothing.
Peace.

![Underage College Student Arrested for Drunk Driving
From the report of Officer Greg Nelson, lightly edited:
On Saturday, February 6, 2021, at approximately 3:32 a.m., I responded to to back up Sergeant Holt on a traffic stop.
I approached the driver side of the black Mercedes and made contact with a white female driver [who will be referred to as the Driver going forward]. The Driver was the only individual in the vehicle. I identified myself to the Driver. As I was speaking to her, there was a strong odor of alcoholic impurities emitting from the vehicle. I asked the Driver where she was coming from, and she advised that she was coming from downtown. I asked her how much she had to drink and she advised she had one vodka and cranberry.
While speaking to the Driver, I observed that she had a yellow band on her right wrist, which is typically used at a drinking establishment to identify someone over the age of 21. The Driver was 19. Due to my observations, I informed the Driver that I wanted to ensure she was safe to drive, and asker her whether she was willing to participate in field sobriety exercises. She agreed.
While outside the vehicle, I could smell an overwhelming odor of alcoholic impurities emanating from the Driver’s breath and person. I also noticed that her eyes were bloodshot and glassy.
Horizontal Gaze Nystagmus
I instructed the Driver how she was to stand. Using the red light as a stimulus, I instructed the Driver to follow the stimulus with her eyes and her eyes only and not to move her head. The Driver advised she understood.
I checked her eyes for equal and normal pupil size; they were. She did not display resting nystagmus, and her eyes displayed equal tracking. While checking for lack of smooth pursuit, the Driver had to be reminded to follow the stimulus with her eyes only. There was a lack of smooth pursuit in both eyes as well as nystagmus at maximum deviation and prior to 45 degrees, however there was no vertical nystagmus. While checking, the Driver had to be reminded to follow the stimulus with her eyes only. During the exercise, the Driver displayed a sway from left to right and front to back.
Walk and Turn
For the walk and tum exercise, I had the Driver stand at the end of a white parking line. I asked the Driver if the surface appeared to be level to her, if it was free of debris, if the line was straight. the Driver answered yes to the questions. I instructed the Driver of the position she was to get into and maintain while I read and demonstrated the exercise. While instructing the Driver, she had to be reminded to stay in the correct position.
While completing the exercise, the Driver did not count her steps out loud. She missed heel-to-toe on steps one, two and three on the way down, and took ten steps, missing steps one, two, three, five, six, seven, eight and nine on the way back, when she also took eleven steps.
One leg stand
Prior to beginning, I instructed the Driver how to stand while I read the instructions and demonstrated the exercise. She had to be told multiple times to stay in the correct position, and started the exercise before I told her to begin. After instruction, I asked the Driver if she understood the instructions, she said that she did. Throughout the exercise, the Driver displayed orbital sway to the left and right, front and back. She put her foot down at 24 seconds.
Based on her driving pattern, personal contact and performance of the exercises, I determined that the Driver’s normal faculties were impaired. She was arrested for driving under the influence.
The Driver was then secured in my vehicle and transported to the Orange County DUI Center. I requested for the Driver to submit to a breath test, and she agreed. On the first breath test, at approximately 5:01 a.m., the Driver blew a .094%. On the second breath test, at approximately 5:04 a.m., she blew a 0.095%.
The Driver was issued a citation for running a red light and a DUI Citation. She was later approved for and successfully completed DUI pretrial diversion.
