Remember when the FBI required that all cell phones, no exception, have tracing capability in the network or the phone (I think in CDMA it's in the phone - not sure)? Remember how the claim was that it was for 911 services?

Not stated here: the capability was in the system below but the 911 centers couldn't get to it. Only the police could, and couldn't be bothered for a long time. Not only did the FBI get their system, and not only does it appear to work, but they aren't letting 911 services use it (in this area anyway).

GPS Nabs 'Porno Man'

PROVIDENCE, R.I. - State police used Global Positioning System technology embedded in a cell phone to track down and arrest a man suspected of making 1-800 obscene phone calls to 911 operators over the past two months.

Police arrested Kenneth Iasimone, 41, who was dubbed "Porno Man" at the Emergency 911 headquarters. Iasimone allegedly called 911 on a cell phone he had bought using the fake name "Tony Soprano."

Raymond LaBelle, executive director of Rhode Island's E-911, said the man sometimes called four to 10 times a day.

"He would call and use some dirty language and play a pornographic film in the background," LaBelle said. "The telecommunications operator who took the call would have to listen to the grunting and groaning and whatever else that goes along with that entertainment."
