The Chilling 911 Tape
Filed under: Drugs
Click here to listen to the emergency call that Brad Renfro's girlfriend made after she discovered his body dead from a heroin overdose.
She explained to the phone operator that “his nose is bleeding…he doesn’t seem to be breathing…he’s completely passed out.”
Sounds like she may have been on something herself!

not first bitchez!
i think its disgusting that you would even display this.. have some respect for the dead for christ sake

wow this is amazlingly SAD
So scarey, he was my childhood crush and its sad to see he's gone
Oh my god. I can't believe his dead.
That's a ridiculous emergency call… she's clearly on something…
:(
rip
DUDE, I AIN'T EVA GONE BE FIRST, WHY DO I TRY??? I'M GOING TO HANG MYSELF RIGHT NOW SO I DON'T HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT BEIN 1ST !!!!! ALL YOU FIRSTERS GO FUCK YOUR SELVES
GOODBYE CRUEL WORLD!!!
XOXO COOKIESHAMPOO
poor girl, she seemed to not want to accept he was gone. i've been there, it's not easy. she did her best……..this sucks for everyone involved!! she won't soon forget this time…..it wasn't your fault sweet!
RIP kid…Kinda makes me think about jumpin of the Horse Myself.
Yh i think this is awful, whats done is done and he's never coming back so maybe its best not to show this tape, people are sick in the world (no you perez), people wanna make a buck or two from dead people!
thanks for this perez, we'd be in a pitiful world without you!!!
oh my god, that is so SICK. She is so drugged out of her mind, I hope she gets charged! and never lays a finger on Brads funds! or whatever is left of him.
Rest in peace Brad!!!!.
It sounds like the girl is high and used to Brad Renfro being passed out all the time.
She does not sound coherent and it's frustrating the 911 operator, what should have been done in 2 min is taking her 10.
What a freakin' moron….

normally i love this site but this really crossed a line that i usually dont have. It takes a lot to make me comment on a blog, Brad Renfro's death was my first… this is my second. This is proof to me that the world is heartless. Though im not just knowing if at some point if i was famous, even in fucking death i wouldnt be saved from exploitation proves that the world is cold….this bothers somebody who normaly doesnt have that button
What is she on?Cant even tell if he's breathing? What a waste of air
SAD!!!!!!
I am DISGUSTED that this got posted. Show respect over a need of celebrity
I think it is great that Perez posts this kind of stuff. There is nothing glamorous about ODing from drugs. All of you who want to sugar coats their lives and deaths are enablers.
COOL ANOTHER JUNKIE BITES THE DUST!!!
HEY DUDE THANKS FOR ODING AND INCREASING THE QUALITY OF THE GENE POOL!
SHE IS DEF ON SOMETHING, I MEAN C'MON WHAT SIDE IS THE HEART ON? BUT ATLEAST SHE TRIED. THE SAD THING IS THAT THE AMBULANCE DID NOT EVEN ARRIVE UNTIL 8 MINUTES AFTER THE CALL WAS PLACED, WITHOUT ADEQUATE OXYGEN THE BRAIN IS DEAD AFTER 6 MINUTES. ITS JUST VERY SAD BECAUSE HE WAS A TALENTED ACTOR WHO WAS TRYING TO GET HIS LIFE BACK TOGETHER
posting this does glorify bein a junkie, it DOES sugarcoat it!!!! EVEN IF (AFTER ALL THE STRUGGLE OF ADDICTION) U OD!!! IF U'VE GOT TALENT ITS STILL GUNNA BE GLORIFIED EVEN IF ITS IN A BAD LIGHT TO SOME PEOPLE
Re: gemma – hey goodie goodie. in case you missed it, this is a gossip site. gossip is ugly, just like you. we don't respect the living here so why would we respect the dead?
How sad that the girlfriend is so messed up and unaware. I wonder how long he had been like that before she could figure it all out?
as a recovering addict with two kids myself, i think that people should hear this, it just reminds me why not to do that shit. just to all the people that are gonna say your kids should be enough well sometime people think that their lives are so messed up that nothing seems important to stop. it took my father dying to really appreciate life. heroin is a fu@#ed up drug.
Simply sad….what is even worse is that his girlfriend sounds just as high!
That Girlfriend was obviously high as a kite. I just wanted to slap the shot out of her.
I'm wondering if his girlfriend cared about him at all and how long he was lying on the ground "passed out" before she actually called authorities.
If he had any hope at all, it was gone with this woman. She was definitely on something and she acted like "whatever!" I was very annoyed listening to this. I hope they don't let anything out like this regarding Heath Ledger. This is crazy!
Are you people really upset that this has been posted? It's a matter of public record and anyone can find it if they really try. The girlfriend is obviously either a complete idiot or on many drugs. How is she not trying to help him more instead of constantly saying "I'm going to put you on speaker phone". I think if someone was on the other line trying to help me save my boyfriend, I might try a little harder and perhaps a little faster. What a moron.
God that tape is reallt sad. If that chick wasnt so druged out maybe she could have helped more. I bet she feels like sh*t now.
wow, that girl is the dumbest piece of shit ive ever heard on a phone before…WHO IN THE FUCK ASKS IF YOUR GONNA GIVE CPR THROUGH THE MOUTH!!!!????? WHO TALKS THAT SLOW, n doesnt even cry, or act concerned when her bf is lying there dead, not breathing, with blood comin out of his mouth. It looks like she was the reason he was int othat shit.
perez you are one hell of a hypocritical cunt - you act all high and mighty about not posting the pictures of heath being removed from his apartment but it's ok to listen to someone's girlfriend on the phone after finding her boyfriend dead? you fucking twat
really? she can't tell if he is breathing? really? what a crackhead, who is this girl? "he's making noises, but not like noises, it could be me"…really?
SHE IS SO OUT OF HER MIND!!!!!! I wish someone a little more coherent was there to help! "Do the compressions 30 times 2 times per second." "okay, oneeeee twoooooo threeeee…." AND THEN STOPPED AT TWENTY THEN STARTED AT ONE AGAIN!!!!! SOOO SADDDDD
R.I.P…………………………….
This is beyond sad…very depressing…Brad your gonna be missed forever honey…you were so special…but i wish you knew that!
Hollywood is killing themselves. If they keep it up my rise to fame is sooner than I thought!!! LULZ!!!
You mess with drugs, I have no remorse.
ummm she was def on crack or something
I can hear the heroin in her voice, that ashy rough sound is unmistakeable
Was this really his girlfriend? Because from what I have read since his death, this woman was letting Brad stay with her so that he would be in a clean environment. My guess is that she is an ex-druggie and they weren't sleeping in the same room or anything. She does seem a little slow on the uptake, but I'm sure she was sorta in shock and fearing the worst…IMHO, the 911 operator didn't do anything to encourage her to hurry it up either…
His girlfriend sounds pretty old and the media player says Ben Renfro not Brad Renfro…are we sure this was the right 911 tape?
NOT cool, perez. Why so much respect to one actor's death and not this one? Brad Renfro did some good work when he was young.
How can you boycott releasing certain things about Heath Ledger but not do the same for others? Brad meant much more to me than Heath did and I find that putting this up is bad taste. Perez, I never thought I'd say this, but you're a hyprocrite and I'm done with you and this site.
That girl has got to be on something - she is deathly calm. Anyone else in that situation would be stroking out in panic.
aw perez, i love you but a 911 call is not entertainment/gossip, it's tragedy. coming from someone who has made a 911 call to report the death of my sister I know that it would greatly hurt me to have the nation listening to the audio of it as entertainment. please respect the dead and their loved ones.
What a loser the girl on the phone is. What a loser. Talk about lesser companions. Jesus.
WHAT the fuck is wrong with you, Perez?
Are you like some loser who justs pines away by the computer and posts private shit?
Your mother should be ashamed.
How can you post this??? your so fucked up!
i'm not listeing. you airing this is beyond fucked up. i will not EVER return to this page now.
rot in hell
She sounds like she's on something. She is soooo SLOW!!!
She sounds like she's on something. She is soooo SLOW!!!
A LETTER TO BRAD RENFRO IN HEAVEN. YOU'RE GIRLFRIEND IS A DUMBASS. YOU DID THIS TO YOURSELF BUT SHE DIDN'T DO A THING FOR YOU WHILE YOU WERE LAYING THERE DYING. SHE LET YOU DIE BECAUSE SHE WAS A JUNKIE JUST LIKE YOU. YOU SURE PICKED A GOOD ONE. AS I LISTEN TO THE TAPE, I JUST WANT TO SLAP HER. THE MEDIC WAS VERY PATIENT WITH THIS DUMBASS. SORRY YOU HAD TO DIE, BRO.
Re: liz – I am not making fun of the tragic 911 call. It's informative, not gossip. Informative to hopefully change the course of someone else's life. This girl is a complete dumbass. Sorry about your loss.
Boy - I hope if I ever need CPR it won't be from THAT chick!
Extra calls her attept "desperate".
What the fuck!?
That was the least desperate thing I have ever heard, and one of the saddest.
That woman needs help and even though she will probably remember very little of it all, she is going to be haunted for the rest of her life.
Hopefully.
Actually, nothing about this tape is sick. This is a lesson for us ALL to learn CPR so that we can check the vital signs and save someone's life. Although Brad was too far gone for any help, did you notice that she didn't know anything about CPR?? This is bad. EVERYONE should know CPR. This is also yet ANOTHER lessons to people.. don't fucking do drugs.. jesus christ get help if you do.
i listened to this and its nice to know that brad had such a fucking moron there by his side to help.
if i were that 911 operator, i would've had the enormous urge to reach into the phone a fucking rip that idiots head off.
Hearing that tape makes me so angry. She sounds like she doesn't even care. Like some people already said, I wonder just how long he was laying there dead before his idiotic crackhead girlfriend thought maybe she should call somebody.
What an idiot. She has to be high how could anyone be that calm otherwise. Idiot. It's SO sad. He had talent. I love how they call him a "former" child star. Brad never stopped acting and made some really good films as an adult.
OMG……PLAYING THE 911 TAPE. I HAVE NO ROOM TO TALK CAUSE I LISTENED BUT ISN'T THIS BAD KARMA?
Wow, this is sad… She sounded like she was on something, but it just could have been from the shock…
RIP Brad
Why would you post this? That's as bad as the paparazzi stalking Heath Ledger after his death. That's just disrespectful
is his gf Gaby Hoffmann ?
is his gf Gaby Hoffmann ?
Perez, I happen to like your style and the way you handle yourself: However if you had respect heaths death, why don't you show Brad the same. I know once you think about it you will agree whatsa good for one actor is good for the other.
respectfuly j13
sounds just like daryl hannah…his rehab girlfriend. notice how the story says 'his girlfriend'..
UGH! I just want to slap this bitch awake. Fuck her! She probably injected him with Heroin and fucking killed him. CUNT!
dude, this is wrong to post this…have some respect
So….I mean did she care??? Sure doesn't sound like it……..the bitch was def on something………no panic????? SUPSECT!!!!!!
WHY IS THIS OKAY TO PUT UP BUT NOTHING ON HEATH LEDGER? YOU ARE A HYPOCRITE. LEAVE THE FAMILIES ALONE TO GRIEVE.
Why on earth would you want to listen to something like that? I don't think it's necessary. It doesn't matter if a person is a celebrity or not, everyone deserves privacy. I think it's terrible how Britney Spears is being hounded all the time when she's obviously got personal issues. Just leave her alone for god's sake!
Bless your heart, I hope you never have a 9-1-1 call sent in your name in your life. The people on the other end of the line are scared, and all CPR and Red Cross training goes out the window. Have some respect. Brad was a great actor and that should be his legacy…not your asinine posts about his last moments. You seem to choose who you put on a pedestal…..should not all persons be equal?
Listening to this 911 tape infuriates me. His gf is SO clearly screwed up out of her mind and CALM AND SLOW MOVING that it just makes me want to shake her!!! Not sure I could stand being a 911 operator and deal w/people like this…I probably would have been screaming at her to wake the f up so she could help the DYING PERSON…
…I mean, she WENT TO GET A WORKER FROM DOWNSTAIRS BEFORE CALLING 911??? HE WAS LAYING ON HIS STOMACH THAT WHOLE TIME? How long was he dead? Could he have been saved if she were not so freaking slow? I hope she is not reading this bc she will feel horribly about herself and that may be too much to bear…but c'mon! Sad b/c his grandma (who raised him) died a few days after he did…probably of a broken heart. DON'T DO DRUGS PEOPLE. Oh, and I agree with the post about his "child star" status: he was an adult star also. Now I know how to do CPR, so thanks Perez and all the other sites playing this…
WOW, she is def. on somthing, asking " do i have to open his mouth for that" when told to blow 2 breathes into his mouth, wow! but then again, I feel her i couldnt operate well with one of my close friends or boyfriend, i would forget any medical terminology that i was taught.
RIP man!
I think its funny how you wrote about the time when Heather Ledger died and a guy made a joke on his show about it saying that it was disgusting and anyone's death should not be talked in any bad ways.
Now you are doing it yourself..I love your website, I am just a bit disappointed
DUDE, THESE GUYS ARE RIGHT.
WAS IT WRONG ONLY BECAUSE WHEN HEATH LEDGER DIED, GAY REMARKS WERE MADE? SERIOUSLY, HAVE SOME RESPECT FOR HER AND HIS FAMILY. PEOPLE LIKE YOU KEEP THIS COUNTRY AWAY FROM BEING FAIR TO EVERYONE
see i dont understand how its perfectly ok to post this but somehow extremely disrespectful to post a picture of michelle williams coming to america after heath ledger passed away or of the police taking his body out of his apartment.
im not saying that should ahve been posted at all, but it seems to me like because brad renfro was less famous than heath his death earned less respect.
i reallly do like reading perez and i understand that its hipocritical to be able to mock one person and not the next but i dont think death should be publicly broadcast in any way.
sorry it just hits a nerve
PEOPLE LEARN CPR!!!! IT IS NOT THAT HARD This kid and Heath could still be alive if people responded more quickly. I'm glad you posted this Perez because maybe people will realize how important it is to be prepared.
Here's a link for the basics! Perez can you make it one of your posts please?! http://depts.washington.edu/learncpr/quickcpr.html
Wow…the girlfriend sounds like Kat Von D…..
So very sad. Time is so valuable. That "girlfriend" wasted too much time, that may of of meant a life saved!
If you have the time, learn CPR people!
Rest in Peace beautiful Brad!
I looking forward to The Informers!
So sad! Love ya sweetie!

Rest in peace Brad!
Love you Brad! You were an amazing actor.
So sad that you never had real friends around you to help you out!
Rest in peace Brad!
Shock! Mad! Sad! So many feelings/toughts/emotions going through my head right now. I don't know what to say. You're now at peace and away from all those crappy so called friends. I wish so many things were different. Sadly it can't be. Rest in peace Brad. I miss you too much.
Another talented actor gone too soon. RIP Brad. I'm really going to miss this one.
There was no reaction from that girl. She didn't seem concerned at all, perfectly calm. What it that about! The process was all to slow. It was an emergency and yet no one reacted as so. Poor Brad.
UMMMM…..
PEREZ, MUST YOU ALWAYS USE THIS PICTURE OF HIM? HE HAS SO MANY WONDERFUL PICTURES AND YET YOU CHOOSE THAT ONE!!!!!!!!
CHANGE THE PICTURE MAN!!!!!!! HE WAS A SEXY, BEAUTIFUL MAN!!!!!!!! SHOW SOME RESPECT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
R.I.P.
Rest in peace Brad!
Stupid Bitch! What was wrong with that freakin' woman??? It makes me wonder if his life could of been saved if she wasn't so freakin' slow!!!!
I am so mad and heartbroken by that 911 call! Everyone was reacting so slow! It was an emergency, so what was taking so long? How did she not know if he was breathing or not? That lady was def. drugged up!!! So sad!!! Everyone needs to learn CPR!!!
who needs enemies when you got dumb shit friends like this?
Where was the urgency? Did she seriously go get "workers" to help her before she even called 911? Why did it take so long to start CPR?
How dumb can you be?
She didn't even seem to care that he was DYING!
She could have saved his life.
What a dumb bitch
Did she even care that he was dying? Why didn't she move faster? What the hell was wrong with that woman? Anyone remember the dumb bitches who found Kanye Wests mom and how sluggish they were?
A few minutes or seconds can mean life or death.
That's some fucked up shit! It was very sad to hear that his life lingered in these incapable hands.
How sad for his family to hear this girl just carelessly not help him right on the spot.
