I am a criminal defense attorney in Houston, Texas, exploring a
possible alibi defense for a client whose cell phone records show
his cell phone being used immediately before the alleged bank
robbery that the police claim he committed. He says he made the
call at his mother's house, which is 40 miles away the bank he
allegedly robbed. I have subpoenaed the historical cell site
records from the carrier, T-Mobile, but a T-Mobile representative
claims that they do not keep historical cell site information past
30 days.
Even if there are records available to confirm it, it's a pretty fishy
alibi. So somebody at his mother's house was using his cell phone
when a bank 40 miles away was being robbed. "Here Mom, take this
phone ... and call me in about an hour."
[TELECOM Digest Editor's Note: Except that if the records are
available it should be easy enough to find out _who_ the conversation
was with, how long it lasted, and who was on each end of the line. PAT]
