As we've told you ... Perez Hilton's sister (https://www.tmz.com/2026/08/13/perez-hiltons-sister-barbara-lavandeira-opens-up-about-his-frightening-live-stream/) called 911  during his mental health episode after finding him covered in blood with a strange look in his eyes. She immediately grabbed his children and fled the home. Dispatch audio we previously published captured the frantic rush to reach Perez.
