A Los Angeles police detective has been charged with secretly recording men inside the restroom at Angel Stadium while he attended a game off-duty last month.
Ryan Caplette is facing 75 misdemeanor counts of disorderly conduct, including 37 counts of peeping with intent to invade privacy, 37 counts of secretly videotaping and one count of loitering, the Anaheim Police Department said in a statement on Friday.
The charges stem from an incident on June 8, the same day a man noticed the 42-year-old officer filming him as he used the baseball stadium bathroom. The victim then put him under citizens arrest and called the police.
Caplette was cited and released, but a subsequent search of his devices revealed dozens of recordings from inside the Angel Stadium bathroom and other undisclosed locations in Los Angeles. A probe by Anaheim police concluded that Caplette allegedly managed to film 37 people without their knowledge, according to a law enforcement press release.
The detective had previously been relieved of his police powers pending the investigations outcome, a spokesman told the Los Angeles Times. Hes slated to appear in court on July 22.

(767 posts)This guy BROKE the law. This guy was trained & paid to enforce the law. He should be given one year in prison for each violation since he KNEW the law and he KNEW what he was doing illegal. He should be FIRED for breaking the law and being UNTRUSTWORTHY. This information should be shared with the public. If possible he should be added to a sex offender list for just cause.......
