LOS ANGELES, July 17 /PRNewswire/ -- With respect to recent Internet postings of Erin Andrews, she has authorized her attorney, Marshall B. Grossman of Bingham McCutchen LLP, to issue the following statement:

"While alone in the privacy of her hotel room, Erin Andrews was surreptitiously videotaped without her knowledge or consent. She was the victim of a crime and is taking action to protect herself and help ensure that others are not similarly violated in the future. Although the perpetrator or perpetrators of this criminal act have not yet been identified, when they are identified she intends to bring both civil and criminal charges against them and against anyone who has published the material. We request respect of Erin's privacy at this time, while she and her representatives are working with the authorities."

:o
 
I found out about this a few hours ago and I could not believe it's taken this long to pop up here.

Apparently it's a video of her naked.

I can't believe there's finally nude Erin Andrews out on the net, and I can't morally feel it's okay to look at :( Wait to ruin it for everyone, whatever jerk did this.
 
It's more than one video.
It's a series of seven, most about 40 seconds long.

I hope they find the bastards and she wrings every ounce of life out of them. Legally.
 
Attractive woman nekkid on the internets? Color me shocked. Plenty of other places to go to find consenting women to do that. I hope Ms. Andrews sues the *******.
 
I'm sure this thread will bring out the worst in some of our membership.

I side with Cadet and BB - I hope the person who did it is caught, flogged, sue, flogged some more and maybe shot.

So, how tough can it be to narrow the suspects at the hotel? Who knew she'd be in that room?

While I agree with your sentiment in general, the "legally" part of it concerns me not at all.

Give her a piece of razor wire and the genitalia of the asshat that did this. Then look away.

First you go after the web site which initially posted the video. Hopefully they roll over on the people who took it.

Not that you necessarily said it, but we can't just assume it was a guy.

I have no knowledge, but when I saw the site it was on -- which has a lot of amateur videos like that, I had the idea that she could have been filmed by someone doing a lot of peephole filming, who had no idea who she was. And then after the person brought the video back, someone may have recognized her. But I don't know if that is true. Just some wild speculation.

There's also the possibility that someone saw her go into the room without having prior knowledge of her whereabouts, or stalked her to figure out the room number. But yeah, however it was done, it's beyond revolting and worthy of a heavy-handed legal smackdown.

It seems there's a whole fetish world of sites devoted to voyeur photos taken in public up women's skirts and down their shirts. Seems like an odd fetish to me, peeking up skirts while a girl rides an escalator.
 
Here's a question - if it was Maria Sharapova or Jenny Finch, does ESPN report it?
