Looks at phone, sees a number local to me, so I answered.
Whew, not in trouble!! But someone named Sean with a similar number is apparently about to have a rather bad day.
Sure no problem officer.

ATTENTION SPIKES UP. What could he want with me? Did I do something wrong? Lord did I forget to pay something? Questions start flying through my head. What would the detention center sheriff want with me?
Yes sir it is.
I'm sorry to bother you, my staff just told me our guy corrected his information and had a number off for his home phone. Have a good day. Hangs up.
I hear a pause on the line, it goes quiet for a few seconds.
After a few moments he returns.
Hi this is Sargent Moss from the County detention center. Is this Sean?
HELLO
Do what? Officer, I'm sorry I have no kids of my own, and I don't know anybody by that name.
Long pause, OK. (Inaudible talking). Could you hang on for just a sec?

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.
Is your number (xxx) xxx-xxxx??
