General discussion

screen name?

Mar 16, 2004 9:03AM PST

I work in a school and I need to know if there is anyway I could find out who belongs to a screen name.
A message was sent to a teacher on paper and all we have is a screen name. I think it might be aol or yahoo. We will involve the police if necesary, but we would like to find out who belongs to this screen name without police involvement if possible. If the police are involved what steps would they take to find this person?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Valerie
