I was trying to reach out to you because we have a Mr X here, who claims you are his legal guardian. He needs you to come down and sign some forms.

Hi this is Sargent Moss from the County detention center. Is this Sean?
Do you reside at 1234 X X Lane?

Sure no problem officer.
Looks at phone, sees a number local to me, so I answered.
Long pause, OK. (Inaudible talking). Could you hang on for just a sec?
After a few moments he returns.
Is your number (xxx) xxx-xxxx??
