As a teenager, she grew up with rap-music star Eminem and watched as her twin sister first dated, then was married for a time to the budding musician then known as Marshall Mathers.
But unlike Mathers and her sister Kim, Dawn Scott never escaped from the poverty of a trailer park in Warren where the trio spent their youth.
Scott, 41, was found dead Tuesday of an apparent heroin overdose in a trash-strewn trailer, Warren Mayor Jim Fouts said. After receiving a 911 call from Scott’s boyfriend, police arrived at 5:10 a.m. to find her slumped over, unable to be revived, and also found a 92-year-old woman “emaciated and lying on two urine-soaked mattresses,” Fouts said.
