Video: ESPN's Andrews Fights Back - CBS News Online
The above posted video reveals how a perverse peeping tom, violated the rights of ESPN sportscaster, Erin Andrews, in a most vile manner, via abusing technology, to record her nude in her hotel room via an illegally placed hidden camera. This type of sick, devilish conduct is not uncommon in Hollywood.
Erin Andrews
Specialists are now speculating the depraved pervert
There are cases that have surfaced around the country, regarding depraved people using hidden cameras to film people without their knowledge or permission, where prosecutors obtained guilty verdicts and prison sentences for the culprits.
In many of the cases, individuals sick enough to install hidden cameras, breaking the law, were found to be pedophiles as well. It all falls under the umbrella of sexual deviance. It takes a deeply depraved person to do such a thing.

ESPN: Erin Andrews 'grievously wronged' by video
Ephraim Cohen, a spokesman for the video portal Daily Motion, could not confirm the video had actually appeared on his company's site, but said it may have been there months ago. He said a search for the name of the user who purportedly uploaded the video showed the person had opened an account in February, but had since closed it.
"As far as we can tell, the user took the account and the video down a while ago," he said.
How $600 Worth Of Equipment Put Perv In Erin Andrews' Hotel Room
Mon Jul 20 2009 - It's only a matter of time before the cops and Chief Inspector Don Chavez crack this thing wide open. When they do, they'll find someone who needed $600 worth of gadgetry and a penknife to screw with Erin Andrews' life.
Earlier today, I sent a snippet of the video, still being passed around the internet like samizdat, to a helpful guy named Jon from Spy Tec Inc. in New York, a company that specializes in "the finest surveillance and detection equipment on the market today." He says the peeper was probably in an adjoining hotel room (not, as many people seem to think, on the other side of a peephole), having threaded a gooseneck or fiber-optic camera through a hole in the wall about a quarter-inch across. "I doubt the wall was concrete," says Jon, who asked me not to use his last name. "Any kind of sheetrock or plaster, you could use a penknife, if you have the time to do it."
"I think somebody was on the other side of the wall," he adds. "It's not like he put something in [in her room]. He's able to move the camera from her torso down, so somebody was doing it"
It's not an expensive operation, either. The camera wouldn't have cost more than $240, according to Jon. On the other side of the wall, it would've been hooked up to a digital video recorder that retails at $400, tops. This is horrifyingly basic equipment, cheaply purchased and easily operated.
"And if the person does it a lot," Jon says, a little ruefully, "it's not a big investment."
