BARBOURSVILLE, W.Va. (WSAZ)-- A man using the restroom at the Huntington Mall was shocked when he noticed he wasn't getting as much privacy as is typically expected.
Barboursville Police Chief Mike Coffey says a young man, only 18-years-old, maneuvered his cellphone under a restroom stall on three separate occasions to video-record the man as he was partially undressed.
It was reported at 4:30 p.m. Thursday.
According to the criminal complaint, police searched the suspect's cell phone and found video of the victim, along with a video of another man using the bathroom in the mall earlier in the day.
The teenage suspect from Ona admitted to making the recording, the complaint says.
The suspect is charged with two counts of criminal invasion of privacy.
....Or maybe he just made an honest mistake. He was confused. He thought he was in the Ladies Room. (Not)
Regardless. Way to go kid. You're famous!

There are sick people in this world; laws can’t stop it.
Laws can't stop it but head cracking and jaw breaking will.
This actually could’ve just been a (non-sexual) sick person, wanting to record disgusting acts for his eye-catching on-line replies.
As I saw yesterday right here on FR - at least, the disgusting bodily functions part.
All those psychology degrees from our universities are going to waste. If you can’t define such behavior as a mental illness, this insanity will continue.
I'm just not in tune with what's "fun" I guess....
GROSS!
I can imaging either stomping or kicking that phone out of focus.
IMAGINE!!!
dang autocorrect!
Copraphiliacs will be in line right behind the polyamorous and pedophiles demanding “rights”, “acceptance”, and celebration of their lifestyle.
Ain’t diversity great? /s
