December 1, 2013 – Kari Hunt died because of a single digit 
 Kari met her estranged husband in a Marshall, 
Texas hotel for visitation with their 3 children 
 Allegedly, her ex-husband brutally attacked and 
stabbed her multiple times 
 Her 9 year old daughter tried to call 911 
 In fact, she tried to call 4 times, but the calls failed 
 She was able to rush her 2 siblings to safety 
 Kari Hunt died from her injuries before help could 
arrive 
 Why did the calls fail? 
 You needed to dial 9-911 from the hotel room 
 But that’s not what we teach our children

Editor's Notes

  • #3 Kari met her estranged husband in a Marshall, Texas hotel for visitation with their 3 children Her ex-husband brutally attacked and stabbed her 49 times in front of her children Her 9 year old daughter tried to call 911 In fact, she tried to call 4 times, but the calls failed Finally, she rushed her 2 siblings to safety Kari Hunt Dunn died from her injuries before help could arrive Why did the calls fail? You needed to dial 9-911 from the hotel room But that’s not what we teach our children This is why Avaya in cooperation with Hank Hunt is promoting the No 9 Needed campaign, to raise awareness and fix this simple problem.
  • #7 The problem today is that emergency call routing is based on a few basic principals. The first is the telephone number being presented to the network for routing. It assumes that each address has a unique telephone number, therefore making the phone number the database key for the emergency call routing entity in the network. The database manages the proper mapping of telephone number to the proper agency for called delivery.
  • #8  While this is typically sufficient for residential citizens, individuals within a corporate enterprise have additional challenges due to large campuses with multiple buildings. These may have no, or unclear, street addresses as they are on private property, and secure buildings may have access control requirements and multiple floors serviced by various entrances. Enterprise users are typically not afforded the same level of location granularity, and while technology is available, it is often too confusing or expensive to deploy. Because of this, Enterprise Public Safety issues are often pushed to the side or forgotten about, until a tragedy happens.
  • #9 Inexpensive, yet highly functional software modules are that provide verbose notification to emergency call events on the network. 1st Responder clients can be anywhere on the network that has connectivity to the enterprise will. This would include remote branch offices or VPN users. In addition to providing local on-site responders with critical information the server also acts as an integration point for the conveyance of rich location data to public safety.
  • #10  while this level of information certainly adds relevant data to the question of location, it by itself is not typically enough to provide discrete information to specifically locate an individual. Fortunately corporate enterprise networks contain additional data resources that can be utilized and queried. Information from LDAP and active directory can provide details on the individual. The user themselves may even contribute additional personal or medical information that they have opted in for. Relevant data points from the wireless LAN infrastructure or the ML TS PBX itself can provide visibility into the device that was used to place an emergency call. That information, correlated with cable management records can be utilized to fine tune the location. And finally, critical environmental information from smart buildings or HVAC systems can provide important clues such is ambient temperature or smoke conditions in the origination area of the emergency call. When looking at an emergency call hangups, this additional information can be critical in determining real calls from hoax calls. This model also will neatly packages this information for retrieval or transmission to public safety entities, once a next generation emergency services network infrastructure is put in place.
