Accused SpyCam'er Aquitted - Non-HD SpyCam Saved Her Butt... and His

Australia - An army corporal accused of secretly filming a woman while she showered at an Adelaide Hills barracks has been acquitted in the Adelaide Magistrates Court...

Magistrate Kym Boxall rejected claims by the defence that the card may have been stolen and worn to disguise the identity of the perpetrator.

"I find that rather the actual perpetrator inadvertently filmed himself, including the identification card, and thereby almost gave himself away," he said...

"There is no doubt that a crime of indecently filming a female person was committed at Woodside Army Base using a small filming device that looked like a vehicle remote control unit," he said.

However, he said he was not satisfied beyond reasonable doubt that Freeman was the person who planted the device. Freeman was found not guilty and the charge was dismissed. (more)
