Woman calls 911 when husband refuses to eat dinner

Prosecutors will review the case of a woman authorities claim has called 911 30 times over six months for non-emergency reasons, including a call to complain that her husband refused to eat his dinner. Last Friday, the woman allegedly made a pair of calls to 911, including a hang-up and another where a woman was heard screaming.

I grew up in an age where you would never contemplate ringing the emergency services unless it was a real emergency. Should anyone making a "frivolous" call be automatically prosecuted/fined?
Of course it'll fit; you just need a bigger hammer.
