The phone rang as I was sitting down to my evening meal, and as I answered,
I was greeted with "Is this Karl Brummer?" Not sounding anything like my
name, I asked, "Who is calling?"
The telemarketer said he was with The Rubber Band Powered Freezer Company or something like that. Then I asked him if he knew Karl personally and why
was he calling this number?
I then said off to the side, "Get some pictures of the body at various
angles and the blood smears." I then turned back to the phone and advised
the caller that he had entered a murder scene and must stay on the line
because we had already traced this call and he would be receiving a summons
to testify in this murder case.
I questioned the caller at great length as to his name, address, phone
number at home, at work, who he worked for, how he knew the dead guy and
could he prove where he had been about one hour before he made this call.
The telemarketer was getting very concerned and his answers were given in a
shaky voice. I then told him we had located his position and the police were
entering the building to take him into custody, at that point I heard the
phone fall and the scurrying of his feet running away.
My wife asked me as I returned to our table why I had tears streaming down
my face and so help me, I couldn't tell her for about fifteen minutes. My
meal was cold, but it was the best meal in a long, long time

It sure is convienant how they call when it is "family" time.
