Let me tell you about them showing up in force. I mentioned a former 
employee in my previous post to this thread:

" I still remember getting an automated announcement at my office when the collect call was
from the county jail. I promptly hung up and revoked all phone access for a certain employee."


That same employee was at a party with her doper friends and told people 
that she was going to shoot the officer that put her drug-dealing 
boyfriend in jail. She went on to say that her boss(meaning me) would 
buy the gun for her. As usual, there was a police informant there to 
hear all this. So 4 big bad undercover narcotics cops from 3 different 
agencies show up together at my office to check the story out. The whole 
thing was news to me but I did manage to settle them down without 
getting beat up.

If you want to get them to your house sooner it probably helps to 
threaten them, their associates and their families. You can also try 
threatening judges, parole officers, prosecutors and any informants that 
actually deliver reliable information. If I ever caught someone using my 
telephone to make such calls I would want to quickly tie them up outside 
with a telephone super-glued to their face before the police arrived. 
That might at least minimize the damage to my own health and property. 
So just imagine what will happen if you set up a bellster node and some 
recently-paroled convict uses it to make such calls. Company's coming ......
