The current state of affairs:
Unlike Lennay, I will confess to telling a lie. I said that I had confirmed that Hy Mayerson wasn't Len's attorney because it was a Saturday and I wasn't able to reach him (and knew I probably wouldn't be able to until today).
Therefore, I said what I said because I thought it was absolutely impossible that Mr. Mayerson -- who does not practice criminal law -- would involve himself in something like this or be stupid enough to allow Len to make threats in his name on these pages. Out of sympathy and professional courtesy, I was hoping to minimize Mr. Mayerson's involvement in this drama because I simply couldn't fathom that he had willingly stepped into it.
Since then, however, I have confirmed that (1) The Facebook account in question is Hy's legitimate Facebook page, (2) He fancies himself a "video producer" and has produced some really weird stuff, including stuff about trains and (3) He's, ahem, "eccentric" (the video below is definitely worth watching):
If -- and this is quite plausible given the grammar and general insanity of the threats made on "Erica R. Stone's" Facebook page (reproduced below) -- this was Lennay hijacking an old man's Facebook account, we should not drag Hy's name through the mud on Len's account. Yes, he's eccentric, but if this was Lennay illegally logging into his account when he wasn't looking, he's a victim, not a cow.
I have emailed and left a message for Mr. Mayerson and will update everyone at the end of business today (and, believe me, if this is legitimate, I have already found a lot of material for you guys). However, until we hear back from Mr. Mayerson, let's try to keep things calm.
Yours,
Saul
