A question for anyone with knowledge of the law. Is it illegal to pose as something your not in order to get information or dirt or whatever on someone else?......I'm trying to figure out why the ex-page feels the need to hire a high priced attorney?!

Yes, it's called "pretexting." The former CEO of Hewlett Packard just resigned and was indicted for doing that.

If he was engaged in or had knowledge of the blackmail of a sitting US Congressman and/or trying to effect an election, he needs a lawyer.
