My son is doing better. He's not so afraid today but he did go to church and ask for a prayer request. He asked for the church to pray for our family AND the client. What a great kid I have! So glad this nutcase is out of our lives.

Thank u all again for the help and support!

Awww - that made me cry! You done good Mama! What a sweetheart!

SIDE NOTE: I do want to mention that recording someone without their knowledge is usually not legal or submissible to courts as evidence. Voice messages do not fall under that category because people are aware of the fact they are leaving a recorded message.

how come police can tap phone lines and record phone conversations and it's legal? and statements are also always taped?

i always just thought recordings weren't usually admissible because if they don't say their name, then there's no way to prove who is saying the stuff.

Based on what I understand (DON'T take this as for sure) but police can tap phone lines if they have probable cause to do so. They cannot do it "just because" they are nosey or whatever. Like having a search warrant, they must have sufficient evidence to suspect a person is guilty of something illegal. They also tape conversations, but they do tell people ahead of time and then even ask the person to state their full names and so on.

As a pp mentioned, it is wise to find out the laws in your own state since each one seems to differ in that regards.
