911 call from Scott Wolf's home sheds light on family drama before estranged wife's detainment
A 911 call was made by a distressed unknown caller from Scott and Kelley Wolf's home in Park City, Utah on Friday, June 13.
Fox News Digital obtained dispatch audio from the "Party of Five" star's home, as an unknown caller, whose name was redacted, reported to police that there was a family fight.
"Second time today I've called the police on my brother-in-law. I'm going through a very bitter divorce battle with my now hopefully ex-husband, who's currently filming a movie in Los Angeles and his brother is here… meant to be helping with our children… and I do not feel safe with him in the house," the unknown caller is heard saying in the 911 audio released by the Summit County Sheriff's Office.
The caller told Utah police that she was being abused and claimed individuals blocked the doorway to prevent her from entering the home.
When the police asked if any of the individuals had access to any alcohol or drugs, the caller replied, "I don't think so. I mean what time is it? 3 o'clock? I've been sick trying to go to sleep."
"My brother-in-law has been removed for trespassing a few days ago," the unknown caller said in the 911 call. Police have not confirmed who they were referring to on the call.
Reps for Scott did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital's request for comment.
On the same day as the 911 call, which was just days after the former couple announced their divorce, Kelley was detained by police in Utah County and taken to the hospital.
The incident, which the Utah County Sheriff's Department confirmed to Fox News Digital, was captured in a video that was shared on Kelley's Instagram page Friday. In the clip, which featured a black screen with audio only until the final few seconds, Kelley was heard speaking to police officers who were detaining her. She also accused Scott of "abusing" her.
"You had every opportunity to be reasonable," an officer told her at the beginning of the video.
"Don't. Don't. Oh, my God, this is not happening," Kelley could be heard saying.
"Fine. I'll go. I'll go on my own, please. I'll go on my own. Wow," she told the officers. "This is shameful, gentlemen, look at this. Look at this woman. This is shameful. Be ashamed. Be ashamed of yourselves, gentlemen."
One officer was heard telling Kelley that she was "not going to jail" and that they were "going to get you some help."
"I know what I'm doing. I've done this," the "Real World: New Orleans" alum responded. "This is my job. Shame on all of you,"
"You made some comments to your dad, some comments to people that are concerning," an officer told her. "We want to make sure you are OK."
"I think this is shameful, and Scott Wolf has been abusing me, and now you're abusing me more," she claimed in the video.
"We haven't talked to Scott Wolf," an officer said.
In a statement to Fox News Digital, a representative for the Utah County Sheriff's Department said, "Deputies responded to the Sundance Resort for a report of a female that needed some help. Upon speaking with the female, our Deputies learned that she had made concerning comments to a family member, and she also made similar comments to our Deputies. For that reason, our Deputies transported the female to a local hospital."
On June 10, Kelley, who is a life coach and author, announced that she and Scott were splitting after 21 years of marriage.
The "Everwood" alum and Kelley met on a blind date in 2002 and married in May 2004. The former couple share sons Jackson, 16, and Miller, 12, and daughter Lucy, 11.

Late billionaire Tom Benson's granddaughter arrested for allegedly shoving cop in parking row
A heated confrontation over a parking violation in downtown Charleston, South Carolina, ended with the former heir to the New Orleans Saints empire in handcuffs. Police say Rita LeBlanc, 48, granddaughter of late Saints owner Tom Benson, allegedly shoved a city parking officer and grabbed their booting tool during the altercation, according to WCSC-TV. The incident on Monday unfolded near the corner of Meeting and Water Streets, where officers responded to reports of a parking enforcement officer being assaulted, according to Charleston police. Sgt. Chris Stinson told WCSC-TV that during the argument, LeBlanc briefly took hold of the officer's boot-locking device as they were attempting to attach it to a vehicle. LeBlanc was arrested at the scene and charged with hindering a city officer. She was booked into the Al Cannon Detention Center and released the following day on a personal recognizance bond. A court date has been set for July 24. LeBlanc once held a prominent role within the Saints organization, serving as vice chairman from 2012 to 2014. She was widely regarded as the heir to the team's ownership before a falling out with her grandfather. In December 2014, Tom Benson removed her from her role, while also 'cutting off any future contact,' reported at the time. He later announced that his wife, Gayle Benson, would succeed him as owner. The family rift reportedly stemmed from an incident during a 2014 Saints game, in which LeBlanc allegedly grabbed Gayle Benson by the shoulders and shook her while they were in a private suite. The altercation led to a highly publicized legal battle, with LeBlanc, her brother Ryan, and their mother Renee filing a lawsuit seeking to have Tom Benson declared mentally incompetent, per The suit was ultimately unsuccessful. Tom Benson, who owned both the Saints and the New Orleans Pelicans, passed away in 2018. Gayle Benson remains the principal owner of both franchises.

Contributor: By wearing masks, immigration agents undermine authority and endanger us all
On Tuesday, New York City Comptroller Brad Lander was arrested by several masked Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents at a courthouse in Manhattan as he attempted to steer an individual past immigration authorities. That same day, masked agents outside a Walmart in Pico Rivera detained two individuals — one a target of immigration enforcement, the other a U.S. citizen who tried to intervene. These two scenes from opposite sides of the country illustrate what has become a more common problem: federal agents wearing masks to avoid recognition. On Thursday, masked individuals said to be affiliated with the Department of Homeland Security descended on a Home Depot in Hollywood and on Dodger Stadium. Masking is not good law enforcement practice. It may contradict Homeland Security regulations, while potentially providing cover for some officers to violate constitutional and civil rights. It undermines agents' authority and endangers public safety as well. The federal government has no specific policy banning immigration agents from wearing masks. But the fact that such practice is not illegal does not make it acceptable. Department of Homeland Security regulations require immigration officers to identify themselves during an arrest or, in cases of a warrantless arrest, provide a statement explaining how they identified themselves. The use of masks seems to violate the intent of these directives for identification. ICE agents in masks are becoming disturbingly routine. There were ICE agents in masks at the Los Angeles immigration protests recently, just as there have been at enforcement actions in Minneapolis, Boston, Phoenix and across the country. In March a video of Rumeysa Ozturk, a doctoral student at Tufts University, being detained by masked officers on the street went viral. There seems to be no uniformity in the face coverings immigration agents wear, which has included ski masks, surgical masks, balaclavas and sunglasses. Such inconsistency across a federal workforce flies in the face of sound policing. Masked agents can confuse both bystanders and ICE targets, which risks people interfering with enforcement actions that look more like kidnappings. The International Assn. of Chiefs of Police has warned that the public 'may be intimidated or fearful of officers wearing a face covering, which may heighten their defensive reactions.' Todd Lyons, acting director of ICE, said earlier this month that immigration agents wear masks to protect themselves. "I'm sorry if people are offended by them wearing masks,' he said, 'but I'm not going to let my officers and agents go out there and put their lives on the line, their family on the line, because people don't like what immigration enforcement is.' Yet law enforcement jobs come with an assumption of exactly that risk. Consider that the overwhelming majority of police officers, sheriffs and FBI agents fulfill their duties without concealing their faces. Correction officers who deal with prisoners do not wear masks, nor do judges who administer our laws. Because these public employees have such tremendous power, their roles require full transparency. Besides, ICE agents are increasingly targeting noncriminals, which mitigates the argument that agents require masks for safety. According to the research site Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse, about 44% of people in ICE detention as of June 1 have no criminal record. When ICE agents wear masks, there can be unintended consequences. Lately, there has been a spike in people impersonating agents and engaging in harassment, assault and violence. In April, a Florida woman wore a mask as she posed as an ICE agent and attempted to kidnap her ex-boyfriend's wife. Ironically, the Trump administration has a double standard around the idea of people wearing masks. It has demanded that universities bar students from wearing masks during protests. In the aftermath of the Los Angeles immigration protests, the president posted on social media, 'From now on, MASKS WILL NOT BE ALLOWED to be worn at protests.' Shouldn't that principle be applied to both sides? True, it makes sense for immigration agents to use face coverings when they are making arrests of a high-profile target or conducting an undercover operation. However, masking should be the exception, not the norm. If ICE agents are conducting their duties anonymously, they open the door to potential civil rights and due process violations. The practice gives impunity to agents to make unlawful arrests, without the possibility of public accountability. Masking can also be seen as a show of intimidation by immigration agents — whether their target is an undocumented migrant or an American citizen, like Newark Mayor Ras Baraka, who was arrested outside a New Jersey detention facility in May. Masked ICE agents give the impression of being a secret police force, which is not good for our democracy. Last week, two Democratic lawmakers in California introduced a bill that would bar local, state and federal law enforcement officers in California from wearing masks on duty (with certain exceptions). Although this is a step in the right direction, it remains unclear whether such a state measure could be applied to federal agents. Congress should ban the use of masks by immigration agents. ICE officers should not be allowed to conceal their faces. The public's need for accountability strongly outweighs any rationale for agents' anonymity. Raul A.
