Reply #77: It's true that you can be assigned someone else's phone number [View All]

When I lived in the San Fernando valley I was assigned Cybil Shepherd's old phone number. One day I got a call from a couple of disc jockeys in Tennessee looking for her. When I told them I had her old number they said, "do you live in her old house?" I looked around my ghetto-ish apartment and laughed my ass off.

But the cops are disgustingly out of line here, and it is, sadly, not surprising. They most likely won't be back, but this story is appalling. I could see KNOCKING on your door and asking if you knew the gentleman in question, but walking in, conducting an illegal search and then berating this poor woman, apparently for recreation, is just beyond the pale.

I'm glad to be out of LA.
