Some quote from Wikipedia
Mitnick served five years in prison—four-and-a-half years' pre-trial and eight months in according to Mitnick, law enforcement officials convinced a judge that he had the ability to "start a nuclear war by whistling into a pay phone", implying that law enforcement told the judge that he could somehow dial into the https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NORAD modem via a payphone from prison and communicate with the modem by whistling to launch.
