Busted For 911 Phone Sex
Florida man dialed up cops from shower "to have some fun"


NOVEMBER 12--Meet Joshua Basso. The Florida man was arrested yesterday after allegedly placing a series of obscene 911 calls during which he asked a female operator about her breasts and whether she would have sex with him. When confronted by cops, Basso would not say whether he was masturbating while talking to the operator, as he claimed during the calls, according to a Tampa Police Department report. The 29-year-old rooming house resident admitted placing the calls, but "did not think he would get in trouble for calling 911." That miscalculation resulted in Basso being charged yesterday with a misdemeanor count of misusing the 911 system (he was booked into the Hillsborough County jail, where the below mug shot was taken). Asked why he chose to dial 911 from among "all the numbers he could have called," Basso told police that his LG cell phone was out of minutes and he "called 911 because it was free." An excerpt from one of Basso's calls--which he placed while a shower was running in the background--can he listened to via the above link. Basso appears to be pleasuring himself while an operator diligently tries to obtain his address. (3 pages)

As he didn't lose or risk losing his reproductive ability he isn't a Darwin Award candidate. 

He needs some type of community service where he gets to see what 911 is really for and some serious explanation of the fact that he was endangering others lives by tying up 911 operators.

Darwin awards also gives out honorable mentions for people who don't lose their reproductive ability but still do stupid things like that guy who got drunk in the pumpkin patch, and thought it was  a good idea to have sex with a pumpkin, or the guy who was constipated, and decided to clear it up by shoving an eel up his %&^.

[Panzergranate]

Just another typical Wanker making hoax calls to the emergency services.

Then there are all those women who manage to "accidentally" trap their toe in the bath tap and have to call out some firemen to rescue them.

Perhaps there needs to be a "Hot chick bath rescue service" for such emergencies...... I'm sure that there would be pelenty of volunteer personel for this emergency service.

Man Dials 911 Asking For Sex With Female Cops
Serial dispatch abuser busted after making seven calls

AUGUST 24--Meet Joshua Basso. Again.

The Florida man was arrested today and charged with misusing the 911 system after admitting to investigators that he made seven separate calls between Wednesday and this morning requesting female deputies for sex.

That might sound familiar because in November 2009 Basso was arrested by Tampa police and charged with the same crime. Back then, he claimed to be masturbating while he queried an emergency operator about her breasts and whether she would be willing to have sex with him. (Click here to read that report and listen to one of his 911 calls).

According to the Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office, Basso, 32, began making calls to 911 two days ago and continued dialing “to request female deputies for his sexual gratification” until confronted by deputies this morning at 11:20 AM, when he copped to the making the calls.

Still behind bars on $3500 bond for the seven misdemeanor counts, Basso--pictured in the above mug shot--can take hope from the outcome of his prior case, which ended in a March 2010 dismissal. (2 pages)

Of course he is an idiot. The police either don't catch the smart thieves or it takes years and years and lots of luck. Since the smart ones are not generally violent their cases don't get the resources that more violent criminals crimes rightly receive.
