ESPN reporter Erin Andrews is on the hunt to sue a Peeping Tom who videotaped the 31-year-old walking around her hotel room naked -- the problem is Erin has no idea where or when the video was shot.
Erin has already lawyered up with one of the most powerful attorneys in L.A., Marshall B. Grossman, and now her team is trying to figure out some details behind the footage so they can put together a plan of attack.
Meanwhile, Grossman has already released 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."
It was not clear from the reports what hotel the video was filmed in or when it was made. The video has since been pulled from the Internet.
ESPN is also also furious about the situation, and released a statement of their own: "Erin has been grievously wronged. "Our people and resources are in full support of her as she deals with this abhorrent act."

Thailand cops are saying there is no evidence that anyone was in the hotel room at the time of David Carradine's death.
Police say they reviewed surveillance footage outside Carradine's room and interviewed all of the hotel's staff. The officer leading the investigation said they have all but ruled out the possibility of foul play.
Police are now interviewing members of the film crew that were working with Carradine in Bangkok.
UPDATE: TMZ just confirmed the FBI has been contacted by the Carradine family. We're told the agency is now taking the required legal steps to see if Thai police want or need FBI assistance with the case.

Jamie Foxx claims he was gripped by fear when an unknown man forced his way into the actor's hotel room -- while Jamie was still inside.
It all went down at the AKA Hotel in Philadelphia on March 22 -- sources say Jamie had to physically struggle to shove a 49-year-old perp out of his room, after the guy tricked Foxx into thinking he was Beyonce's producer.
We're told Jamie realized something was wrong as soon as he opened the door, but the suspect quickly tried to push his way inside. Fortunately, Jamie overpowered him and slammed the door in his face. Law enforcement sources say the man, later identified as Willie Brown (pictured above in a 2006 booking photo), then fled from the scene.
But Tuesday -- 9 days after the alleged incident -- Jamie's private security spotted Brown just a few blocks away from the hotel and contacted police. Brown was arrested for burglary, criminal threats, stalking, false imprisonment and harassment.
