To Catch a Thief
 REAL SPORTS profiles James Hogue, one of the most
successful imposters of modern times. A nondescript high-school runner in the 1970s,
who later ran track at the University of Wyoming, Hogue subsequently transformed
himself into a series of characters, fooling academic administrators, friends, coaches and
teammates. Equipped with charm and intelligence, he began his athletic deception at
Palo Alto High School in northern California in 1987, stealing the identity of a child who
had died at age two and distinguishing himself as a track star. In 1992, Hogue was
admitted to Princeton, where he posed as Alexi Indris Santana, supposedly a home-
schooled student from the Mojave desert; his fake identity was blown by a former Palo
Alto classmate. In Colorado, Hogue honed his burglary skills, allegedly stealing 5,000
items before the police nabbed him. Bernard Goldberg in collaboration with Sports
Illustrated picks up Hogue's trail and tries to make sense of Hogue's incredible run from
justice and the truth. Now 46, Hogue is interviewed in prison in Colorado.
