Please tell me a method to prove this and I will do it. I am a master at obtaining records but how the hell would I get the anonymous call logs to ICE and then back search to find if any are firefighters who were in a house?

By this logic, I should report on nothing unless there is bonafide provable harm. I would write almost nothing!

Do with that what you will.
