I hear a pause on the line, it goes quiet for a few seconds.
HELLO
After a few moments he returns.
Do you reside at 1234 X X Lane?
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?

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.
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.
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.
Long pause, OK. (Inaudible talking). Could you hang on for just a sec?
Looks at phone, sees a number local to me, so I answered.
