Facebook sued over fake page

INDIANAPOLIS - A judge has ordered the social networking site Facebook to turn over information identifying the person who set up a fake profile in the name of a high school dean.

Marion Superior Court Judge Robyn Moberly issued the order Friday, a day after Roncalli High School Dean of Students Tim Puntarelli sued the Web site, alleging harassment and identity theft by the unidentified creator of the profile.

Facebook, based in Palo Alto, Calif., removed the fraudulent profile from its site after Roncalli officials reported it last month. A Facebook spokeswoman declined comment to The Indianapolis Star. The AP sent an e-mail seeking comment from Facebook.

Facebook's privacy policy requires a court order or subpoena before it will release identifying information.  View Full Story Here
