Dorothy Jane Scott was born on the 23rd of April in 1948.

By 1980, when this incident happened, she was 32 years old and she lived in Stanton, California with her aunt and her four-year-old son, Sean.

At times, the caller was fawning, professing his love for Dorothy and making romantic overtures.

Otherwise, he was vitriolic and threatening, saying that he was going to harm her in unspeakable ways.
