The opening scene of the dispatcher talking to the small child in last night's episode of Criminal Minds reminded me of this one time when I was a police dispatcher, I got a 911 call from a woman who was pretending I was a friend who owed her money.

It seems her dealer was there with her, wielding a bat and threatening to beat the shit out of her with it if she didn't pay him the money she owed him.

I was able to get all of the info I needed from her by asking yes/no questions so that she wouldn't alert the dude to the fact that she was talking to the police.

At one point, I heard him screaming at her and hitting the wall with his bat - so you have to hand it to her for having the smarts & the guts to fool him into believing she was calling a friend when she actually called 911.

She was able to stay calm and keep the ruse going so that I could stay on the phone with her until my guys got there, guns drawn, to arrest the SoB dealer.
