[comp.dcom.telecom] Call History As Investigation Aid

JAJZ801@calstate.bitnet (09/13/90)

 
Does the phone company keep a record of ALL outgoing calls from a
phone, not just long distance/toll ? Is there any special procedure/
request required to obtain such? Sadly, this MIGHT give a better
estimate of earliest time of death for someone whose body wasn't
discovered for some time.

[Moderator's Note: It depends on the telco, and the equipment in use
in the central office, but yes, many do log everything, particularly
if the central office is ESS. Police investigators should probably
begin this process by speaking with the Business Office manager.  PAT]
