SpyCam Story #543 - The Tell-Tale Tape

OR - Last year the woman told police told police she thought her landlord was spying on her through a hidden camera in the shower.

The woman lived in an upstairs apartment inside the home the landlord shared with a second renter.
That landlord - former Kalama City Council member Paul Stickel - has been charged with voyeurism, but he claims he did no such thing.

Police searched Stickel's home last Spring and confiscated videotapes, televisions and cable. They also found a hole in the wall in the woman's bathroom.

In a March 2008 affidavit, police said videotape taken from Stickel's home "shows Stickel simulating taking a shower" to test the camera-equipped shower stall. Detectives also cited a "secret viewing area" - a covered peephole - that looks out through a mirror on the woman's medicine cabinet.

Stickel claims the investigators are bluffing. (more) (video)
