Strange Passage

[GP1]

http://www.ohiomm.com/blogs/zips/Here is a link to Rasor's blog. Sort of toward the bottom of the first topic, there is a strange note in there about a University administrator hooking up a hidden camera in a female dorm bathroom. Sickening.......My only question would be whether it is an Athletic Department employee or another department? Rasor normally writes about sports, but this doesn't seem like something someone from the Athletic Department would do or have access to doing.If this is true, the pervert who did it should go to jail.

He is accused of going into female students' rooms without their permission and stealing photographs. He also is accused of placing a camera in a women'sshower in Orr Hall.He left UA in June 2006 to take a similar job at Northern Illinois University in Dekalb. Shortly before he left, a female UA student told university police that she had received threatening e-mails about stolen photographs.On Oct. 21, Harkness was arrested on charges of intimidation and telecommunications harassment at Northern Illinois. In examining his computer, NIU police found videos of female UA students taking showers, said UA Police Chief Paul Callahan.All identified subjects of the photos have been informed, he said. He said he did not know how many women were videotaped.Since the allegations were made at UA, university police have increased security in residence halls.Callahan said they regularly examine bathrooms and showers and have installed combination locks on shower areas. Only residents are given the combination, which is changed periodically.Harkness did not have a criminal record when he joined UA, Callahan said.Harkness will face the local charges after the ones in Illinois are resolved, Callahan said.

I hope for your sake that you're not on any of those videos...who knows where else he may have distributed them.

they said in the zipmail they sent out that they contacted everyone that they could identify, so i highly doubt that i'm in anything. i'm not too worried about it, but thanks for the concern.
