- The recent sad case of Katie Beers of Mastic Beach, New York, saw the
- telephone involved in her safe recovery and the apprehension of John
- Esposito who allegedly (I use that word only because he hasn't been
- convicted yet) kidnapped her and held her in a dungeon.
-
- The payphone where Katie made a call was found by doing a check of her
- godmother's phone logs at the telco office. This helped in finding
- the girl and the arrest of Esposito.
-
- BTW: I live three blocks from her in Mastic Beach, New York, but I
- cannot honestly say that I ever saw her in the last few years.
