I get letters and threats
I get emails:
Ruth V. Sobeck of Palos Verdes offered this explanation for why train victim Chuck Peck's cell phone called his family all night after the Metrolink crash, even though he was killed instantly:
This person, thinking they were anonymous, sent me this. I don't know what story she is referring to and thought the world should see her correspondence. (It came in just like this. I didn't change anything, but broke it into more readable paragraphs. And for those who don't know, all caps means the writer is shouting.)

This is not puzzling to me. I had a bluetooth device that would dial entries from my contact list all the time, even if it was in the pocket of a jacket hanging on a chair. I know two other people who have had the same experience. I bet there was one with debris on it that might have been pressing a button, until the battery died.

Seems strange that your "friend", who can't find her caps key, would brag that she's from Torrance. Her message doesn't reflect well on the city.
Thanks to all. I now know who sent this.
