o.k. one country at time then. a union trustee and national board member runs a private website that has printed confidential information about another union, in violation of an agreement between the two unions prohibiting criticism of one union towards the other and vice versa.that trustee is also a lawyer and internet expert, and is discovered to BE the owner of this private website.an investigation is announce by HIS union that they take the accusation very seriously and through outside council they will look into the charges.two months later, the fully exonerate the trustee (and lawyer). he has issued for the first time a public denial as well.it is KNOWN that this is a lie, that the trustee DOES own the website, and therefore has LIED and the heads of the union have LIED to cover up for him -and that the investigation, whatever it consisted of (they never disclosed ANYTHING about the investigation) has been fraudulent.so, a NEXT step is taken.someone is paid to HACK the control panel of the trustees website, for money.this is done.the trustee lashes back, by, instead of handing the suspicions of being hacked over to law enforcement, he "and my team of investigators" HACK the hacker right back, gaining an underage kids PRIVATE information, calling him on his cell phone and threatening him and hacking into his email and IM MSN account.Does THAT make it somewhat answerable, in a general sense?

is it illegal for a lawyer and trustee of a union, who runs a PRIVATE website disseminating views, information and opinion on union matters - whose website has been HACKED and ALL his information in his control panel stolen by a 17 year old kid to, instead of turning it over to law enforcement to deal with, pursue the kid and threaten the kid HIMSELF by HACKING the kid right back and obtaining the kids private information: cell phone, name address, email, etc., then contacting the 17 year old and threatening him? Good lord. I've been waiting an hour can ANYONE answer this question?
