Pervert Jailed for Two Years Over 'Disgusting Hobby' of Filming Girls on the Toilet
A 36-year-old man from Rochdale has been sentenced to two years in prison for his "disgusting hobby" of secretly filming girls using the toilet. Craig Nixon, pleaded guilty to four counts of voyeurism and one count of taking indecent images of children.
The disturbing details of Nixon's crimes were revealed at a Manchester Crown Court hearing on Tuesday, April 1st. Police found documents entitled "Spy Cam" in his bedroom, as well as numerous videos and screenshots of footage taken without the victims' knowledge or consent.
One of Nixon's victims, who cannot be named, described feeling "uncomfortable, embarrassed, and angry" after discovering she had been filmed. In a statement read in court, she dubbed Nixon a "predator" and said she had been left with sleepless nights as a result of his actions.
The court heard that Nixon had taken over 40 images, including screenshots from videos, and numerous clips of his victims. The footage included over 200 "category C" indecent images of children, with one clip zooming in on the clothed genital area of a child. Another clip showed a victim sitting on the toilet with the seat down.
Police found the incriminating evidence, including paperwork entitled "Spy Cam" in Nixon's bedside table, during a search of his house. Analysis of his phone revealed the extent of his crimes, which included hiding his phone to film girls on the toilet.
In statements read in court, Nixon's victims described the devastating impact of his actions. One said she felt "something inside her die" when she was shown a video by police. Another described his "disgusting hobby" and said she had been left feeling traumatised.
Nixon's defense team said he had been out of work at the time of the offenses and had low self-esteem. He had also been misusing prescribed drugs and alcohol. However, the judge deemed his crimes serious enough to warrant a two-year prison sentence.
