Can I be arrested for prank calling?

Question

My friend on xboxlive lives in Arizona and he gave me his ex's phone number so I prank called them. It got out of hand and I said "I was gonna kill her and rape her corpse" I got another call and we argued then the boyfriend was cursing me out and everything.

Then another man came up and had my information like he traced my call

Can I get arrested?

I never exceeded the 3 call limit when prank calling

Answer 1

well ya...are you dumb / you don't tell somebody ur "gonna kill her and rape her corpse"....that's a terroristic threat nimrod / assuming it's true and that ur not "asking" this question just for kicks, i hope you do get ur dumbass thrown in jail!

Answer 2

Yup.

3 unwanted calls is enough for misdemeanor harassment. 1 call threatening death and s*x assault is good enough for a felony.

Answer 3

yes its harrasment...this question will also get your account deleted...good job.

Answer 4

YES you can be arrested

Answer 5

Answer 8

What do you think?

Answer 9

Yes especially the part about killing a woman and raping her corpse. That could get you a year.

Answer 10

Well, I understand this was all in good clean fun but..... if what you're saying is true..... YES- you CAN get arrested.  From what you have wrote, you have committed approximately TWO crimes.  FIRST, many people fail to realize that when you call someone to "harrass" them.... it is a crime.  Now, they have to be documented by the "victim party" or by the law enforcement agency conducting the open investigation.  From what I read, it sounds that they don't really have a case to "convict" you but they have "probable cause" to at least arrest you or draw up a warrant to at least arrest.  Because, we need not forget.... being "arrested" and being "convicted" are two different things.  You can get arrested on probable cause and held for 48 hrs. to get proof for a conviction.  SECOND, and might I add the worst infraction, when you called and stated, "I'm gonna kill  you and rape your corpse."  That is in violation of either SIMPLE ASSAULT or TELEPHONE HARRASSMENT IN WHICH THREATENING OF GREAT BODILY INJURY OR HARM INSUES.  In the state of Oklahoma, it can be classified as a FELONY!  If they have recorded it or have witnesses or ANY WAY to colaborate it... then you might be looking at handcuffs.  AND, because you called Arizona- it could be a FELONY.  Now that I have scared the pants off of you, you DO face arrest, however, there is probably an informatin report being conducted by their local police department and that is all.  Now, if you call back.... that gives them a chance to further document it and then you are screwed.  I would leave it alone- unless they keep calling YOU... then you can report them!  Hope I helped!
