DETROIT — Her mother shot and dying in a Detroit home, an 8-year-old girl desperately pleaded to a 911 dispatcher for help. But Monica Botello's daughter didn't know where she was or how to tell police to get there.

"My mommy's in the basement and, I need, emergency, and I need ... hello?" the girl said during the frantic call Monday night from Botello's cell phone.

"Where at?" the dispatcher replied in the recording police released Friday.

"Um, I'm at ... I'll go ask my mommy," the distressed girl told the woman who was on the other end of the phone.

"Mommy?" the girl yelled. But it wasn't clear if her mother was able to respond.

Still looking for an answer, the girl said into the phone: "I'll tell you. I'll tell you. I'll tell you where we at. I'll tell you."

"Let me speak to your mom," the dispatcher continued.

"No. She's, she's almost dead. Mommy!" the girl screamed. "Where we at?"

"She's almost dead! Please!" the girl said, crying as her voice grew softer. "Please help me, you promise you will help me."

The dispatcher coaxed the girl into going out on the porch and reading the address on the front of the home she and her family were visiting. The girl also was able to read off the first few letters of the street name, which helped authorities locate the northwest Detroit home.

The 8-year-old and her 6-year-old half-sister were upstairs when officers arrived. Detroit Police Chief Warren Evans said the two girls were the only witnesses to the shooting that killed their 26-year-old mother and her 26-year-old boyfriend, Purcell Carson. Evans said investigators believe the couple were gunned down by an acquaintance.

The 911 recording was released with permission from Botello's family to show the distress and "agony" her young daughter experienced while making the call and to "get the public's righteous indignation in what kind of guy we're looking for here," the chief said.

Prosecutors have signed a first-degree murder warrant for the 42-year-old man who has convictions for kidnapping, armed robbery and assault dating back to 1986, according to state corrections records.

The chief added that making an arrest in the case "kind of tugs at us a little bit more than some of the others."

Evans said his office has initiated an administrative investigation into the tone used by the dispatcher who took Monday's 911 call. The department also is looking into how much time it took before officers were sent to the house.

DETROIT -- A 911 dispatcher who is accused of responding coldheartedly to a child pleading for help as her mother lay dying has been disciplined.

Detroit Police Chief Warren Evans said that the dispatcher acted appropriately by sending a car in timely fashion, but he said she could have shown more "sensitivity" toward the girl as she discovered her mother and her mother's boyfriend had been fatally shot.

Police would not release the dispatchers name and what disciplinary actions she received, saying both were personnel matters.

The dispatcher came under fire when police released a 911 call of the double homicides in hopes of garnering the public's help in finding the killer.

Derrick Dennard Smith, 42, was later tracked down in California and arrested in connection with the murders of the girl's mother, Monica Botello, 27, and her boyfriend Purcell Carson, 26.

Police said Botello's 8-year-old daughter and her 6-year-old half-sister hid in the home on Glastonbury Road during the shooting. Neither of the children were injured.

After Smith and an unknown accomplice left the home, Botello's daughter called 911 from her mother's cell phone, police said.

PERSONAL MATTERS? Don't think it's that personal when you, inadvertantly or otherwise, aid and abet a death by acting like you're so bored with your job that you'd rather be slinging fries!
