Obscene Phone Call Investigation Update
Many women across campus have been receiving obscene phone calls from “Frank Fasso.” Police and
Safety is asking that, due to the mass of complaints received, if the woman has just received one call from
this individual that she need not report the incident.
At this point of the investigation it is asked that only the women receiving repeated calls from this man
notify Police and Safety.
This man is calling all of the local colleges. If he calls Behrend he states he is from Edinboro; if he calls
Edinboro he will say he is from Behrend or another college.
This is currently under investigation and charges will be filed once the identity of the individual is
determined.
