This question concerns a couple friends who were involved in a high speed chase in Texas. They were chased for miles by State Police and managed to elude the police on their motorcycles. After a while they ditched the bikes and took off on foot. One of the cycles was stolen, but not recently; it had legit 30 day tags. The police figured out who they were and have been to their houses and even talked to some of their friends and family. Anyway, these guys have gotten out of town for a few weeks and they want to know if the police have any power to tap the phones at their parents house in Texas. One of the guys lives at home if that matters. They need to get in touch with their parents, but they are afraid that the police will trace any attempted contact. What restrictions do the police have to deal with in a case like this? Would the police even bother to pursue this if they knew these guys were out of town? Will they and can they monitor phone lines or email accounts? I hope that this is enough info for a response and thank you.
