Biography[]
Demon was the older brother of Reggie the Reckless and the boyfriend of a girl named Anita. Little is known about his early life, but according to their grandfather, Demon had a tendency for getting into trouble. Demon and Anita were living in a trailer park not far from the Pinehurst Youth Development Center.
One night, Reggie learned that his brother was in town and wanted to visit him. One of the Pinehurst administrators, Pam Roberts, agreed to take Reggie as well as a troubled teen named Tommy Jarvis out to the trailer park to visit Demon. When Reggie reunited with his brother, he was sitting in the back of his van with Anita smoking pot and eating enchiladas and pizza. Reggie was particularly enamored with Anita and tried to compensate by introducing Pam as his "girlfriend".
After Pam and Reggie left, Demon's Mexican dinner began creating problems for him. He ran out to a nearby public outhouse and began going to the bathroom. From outside, Anita began fooling with him by shaking the structure, which unnerved demon. To calm his nerves, Anita began singing an R&B song and Demon joined in. Moments later, the outhouse began shaking again. Demon yelled for Anita, declaring that "you're gonna get it, bitch!" When he tried to open the door however, he saw Anita lying on the ground with her throat slashed open. The door was barred by her body and Demon fell backwards onto the floor of the structure in a panic. A deranged paramedic named Roy Burns was the one responsible for killing Anita. Using a metal spike he began stabbing through the walls of the outhouse multiple times until one lucky thrust hit it's mark and the blade pierced Demon's chest, killing him. [1]
