A Texas hospital director stashed hidden cameras in bathrooms to spy on patients and staff, police said.
Robert Shrader, 41, was fired from his role at Memorial Hermann The Woodlands Medical Center following his arrest.
The former hospital boss is also the subject of an $100 million class action lawsuit filed by thousands of alleged victims.
Investigators said the scheme was busted when maintenance workers found a camera in a bathroom on August 22. The workers then called the Montgomery County Sheriff's Office, FOX 26 reported.
The camera was traced back to Shrader through its memory card which contained a video of Shrader installing it in the bathroom, investigators said.
Authorities say more than 300 images and videos were recovered from multiple hidden cameras.
At least seven people seen on the footage were identified as victims by police, resulting in Shrader being charged with seven counts of invasive visual recording. He was arrested last week and later posted bond.
The lawsuit filed on Thursday, however, claims that the thousands of people who used the bathrooms at the hospital while the cameras were in place were victims too.

“A woman accidentally drops her phone in the toilet at a coffee shop and discovers a hidden spy camera while retrieving it.
Detectives Benson and Stabler track the camera equipment to a technician and her voyeuristic younger brother, Wade, who has been installing the devices.
When confronted, Wade reveals that one of his toilet cams recorded a much more serious crime: a sexual assault of a minor.”
AGREE
Looks evil.
Oh, OK. I was confused and now I know why.
He looks to me like the embodiment of a guilty creep.
