Help with phone call with DEATH threats

Ok my wife is still really freaked out at the moment so I need all help possible. She recieved a phone call on her cell phone from a twin cites MN number. The person on the other end was re routing what was being typed to her saying it was a re routing service." Is there a such thing as this?" The person on the other end was wanting to talk to my 9 yr old son. When we would not let him get on the person on the other end started threaening to kill my whole family. The wierd part is they know my son's name my stepson's complete name and the friend that my 9 yr old play's with.

The fact that the person know's who my 9 yr old play's with mean's that it is not some prank from one of my 14 yr old step son's friends. I need any and all help researching this . They even new where my vehicle was parked at when asked. Called police but they are of no help right now. can't call the number it just say's call can not be completed.

Is there ANY way one of your children gave out this information in a chat room on the net?

Just wanted to say more that I forgotI am pretty upset. When the person would type out the message the middle person would repeat what was typed and then say go ahead. Then I could speak and then I would have to say go ahead for her to type it then there would be a long pause while she typed and waited for a response. I could here the typing in the back ground.

No they do not have access to a computer for that. The 14 yr old does while at his dad's but he wouldn't talk about my 9 yr old and his friends' and that my Purple jeep was parked right accross the street.

Why can't the police help? They should be taking any death threat seriously. For now I would keep your son close, no school. Take any vacation time you or your wife is owed.
I don't understand why the police can't help. I would keep calling them until you get results.

They took down all the info that is going to be forwarded to the detective tomorrow. They tried calling the number and got the same reponse I did.

Hey you might want to check out this article sounds like you are having the same problem this guy is having. Dont know if it will help any but its worth the read.

A purple Jeep, wow, they must know everything about you,
Dios you husband have any enemies or have you either had any fallouts with friends or neighbors? I can symphatize with your fear.

That phone number is an IP relay service. Lately it has been reported as an AIM relay.

I googled the phone number, and found this article and this one

Police POLICE police...call them ASAP.
Get this reported.....threats are taken seriously. Cops searching can find information more readily than you can...they can find out who this is coming from, and you can get a restraining order to keep them away from you, and if they break it, they are in MORE trouble than just the making of threats.
They seem to know quite a bit about you, and it COULD just be someone who lives by you who feels some offense of some kind and is lashing out in this weird way........
To many CRAZYS in the world we live in, you have a FAMILY don't take any chances!
COPS! COPS! COPS! call them!!!!!

~NOW~

cherokee:

This sounds like a TTY service...

I quickly looked up this number and it appears to belong to MCI. Call them and demand to know where the TTY Call Center is located for that number. Once you get that, call the company that manages that call center and demand their records on the call. They should have an electronic backup of the TTY call, as well as the inbound number/location of the original call.

Hope that helps.

Thank you all for your help. The police have been here and taken there report but the more info that I can take and show them tomorrow the faster they can help.

Looks Like Loam and I hit the same article.

Here is the MCI press release.



Here is the IP-RELAY.COM website. Perhaps you can direct the police there to gather call logs?


It is a tragedy that such a useful service is abused like this.

Yeah I am gathering all this info to help them out. Corporate offices for mci are not open till tomorrow. I will be calling when I get up and taking this info to the detective. Thank you all for your help it is apreciated.

I wish i could provide help, but what was said already is all i know.

I Mainly want to comment "AGAIN" on how cops are not there to help and protect you.
They are only there to take a report after all is said and done,and really are almost never really ionterested in actually helping you as much as figuring out how fast they can get rid of you.

frankly I advise you arm your wife with a handgun and teach her how to use it and teach her the will to use it as needed.

If the cops only want to do something the next day, let them deal with a shot criminal not your wife. Also note, a dead attempted murder can not and will not speak out against you in court.

I can't believe that a company would actually follow through with this. I know they are probably trained to stay indifferent and just act as the messenger they are, but seriously wouldn't a normal person realize what they are saying and stop!? or at least report it to the company for investigation.

Why would they stop? The FCC is reimbursing them $1.50 per minute to continue.

Try calling crime stoppers or something and ask what to do. STAY INSIDE WITH a working cell phone. do not leave the house

also you might be able to get a police man to stand infront of your door

I would call the nearest FBI field office. It is open 24/7. Tell the agent on duty what has happened. Terroristic threats are taken seriously.
