Yes sir it is.
Hi this is Sargent Moss from the County detention center. Is this Sean?
Looks at phone, sees a number local to me, so I answered.
Is your number (xxx) xxx-xxxx??
Do what? Officer, I'm sorry I have no kids of my own, and I don't know anybody by that name.

I hear a pause on the line, it goes quiet for a few seconds.
After a few moments he returns.
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.
What are the defining characteristics of woke liberals and conservatives in the United States?

HELLO
Do you reside at 1234 X X Lane?
Long pause, OK. (Inaudible talking). Could you hang on for just a sec?
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.
