CBS News Examines Death of Jade Benning After Collapse on Date Night
CBS News reported that Jade Benning died after collapsing during a date night with Blaise Taylor, and that she had told friends and family she was pregnant with his child.
CBS News reported that its program 48 Hours has examined the death of Jade Benning, who died after collapsing during a date night with Blaise Taylor. In a video titled Jade Benning's Final Call | Post Mortem, correspondents Anne-Marie Green and Natalie Morales discuss the case, according to the CBS News video report on the Jade Benning case.
CBS News reported that Benning had told friends and family that she was "pregnant with his child." The summary does not state whether the pregnancy was confirmed or who else, if anyone, knew of it.
CBS News reported that Taylor's family insists he "had no motive to harm her." The summary does not say what the family cites in support of that position.
CBS News reported that Benning's best friend says she received a call from Benning on the night of her collapse, and that she overheard Benning in that call. The summary ends before it describes what the friend says she heard, so the content of the call is not reported.
CBS News's description does not address the cause of Benning's death, any investigation into it, or any charges. It also does not say whether anyone has been named as a suspect.
CBS News presented the family's position and the friend's account of the call together, without resolving the difference between them in the summary. This account rests on a single CBS News summary, and the segment's full contents are not described beyond that summary.
