LONG BEACH, Calif. (AP) - A former police records clerk who secretly took videos of 69 co-workers in men’s bathrooms at the Long Beach Police Department has been sentenced to six years in jail.
The Long Beach Press-Telegram says Sergio Nieto of Downey was sentenced Friday after pleading no contest to dozens of misdemeanor counts of invasion of privacy.
Authorities say the 29-year-old Downey man made hundreds of videos in several Police Department bathrooms over a two-year span.
He was arrested last year after he was seen filming in a bathroom.
Prosecutor Kay Watson says many victims felt embarrassed and some were traumatized and needed counseling.
In addition to jail time, Nieto must complete at least a year of sex compulsion counseling and must stay away from police headquarters and substations.
