This (unemployed) IT consultant used his geek skills to develop miniature cameras with which he collected panty pictures on a small, hand-held camcorder. Apparently he had dreams of striking it rich by selling the footage online.

One, pointing upwards, was fitted to his trainer, while another was installed into a shoulder bag.

Both beamed images to a hand-held camcorder.

James Norman, prosecuting, explained that while the way he used the first was obvious, the second showed the “sophisticated” lengths the 46-year-old defendant was prepared to go to.

He told London’s Southwark Crown Court the rear-facing device allowed the dreadlocked voyeur to face away from his victim while illicit images were transmitted to a small hand-held camcorder.

That, in turn, allowed him to adjust the bag “for the best shots”.

Not sure why the fact that he's "dreadlocked" really matters here. If he'd had a conservative, traditional haircut, would it have received a mention? Are we supposed to infer that because he's "dreadlocked," he's either black, or a dirty hippie? In any case, what got the perv caught? All his shifty-ass fidgeting.

Unfortunately for Gay, his “constant manoeuvrings” soon aroused the suspicions of officers hunting peeping Toms in Trafalgar Square.

Mr Norman said they first saw the defendant sitting on steps near the central London tourist attraction one Sunday afternoon.

When two plain clothes police asked him what he was doing, he replied: “I’m filming”.

Questioned further, he admitted he had been collecting so-called “crotch shots” of unsuspecting women, but added: “It is no offence.”

Love how he just fessed up. "Oh, har har, you caught me--I'm totally filming unknowing womens' gineys, but it's no offense! They don't know I'm doing it, but if they did, they wouldn't mind at all! Here, have a look-see, good footage, eh? Eh!?."

The rocket scientist went on to explain that his voyeurism and filming was “no different from paparazzi photographers” targeting women celebrities revealing underwear as they “climbed in and out of cars."

Right, buddy. No different, except for the fact that women celebrities know they're being photographed, and have the opportunity to keep their gineys covered should they choose to do so. Anyway, he could have just taken a cue from Joe Francis and asked the ladies to show him their crotches. Might have had pretty good luck, that way.

When I saw the title of this thread, I immediately thought of the advert for Klondike Bars.

"I'd skydive naked in a windstorm!"

announcers: What would you dooooo-oooooh-oooooooh for a great crotch shot?

The slippery slope of popular culture eroding our rights to privacy and basic human dignity.

If Fox created a reality show called "America's Most Amazing Crotch Shots" after this I wouldn't be surprised.

In fact, consider the title and concept trademarked. Rupert, you know where to find me.

The reason it mattered that he had dreadlocks is that story was written by you mainline, liberal media putting their slant on the story, not just reporting it.

Liberals hate dreadlocks. They're a symbol of good conservative values!!

I've always found it funny that when there's a school shooting the first thing the media reports about the shooter is what he's wearing.

I think when people report about these guys it just encourages them... but I guess they are going to do it anyway.

Heh. And while I don't think it's totally irrelevant, it isn't that important, and it's not really very consistant. I guy shot up a school in Montreal a bit over a year ago now. Every article quickly mentioned his mowhawk and black trenchcoat (the latter of which, I think turned out to be false information anyway) but nothing mentioned the fact that he was of South Asian decent.

I was under the impression that crotch and upskirt shots were not illegal because there is no expectation of privacy when you are out in public. Of course, the United Nanny State of Great Britain and Northern Ireland might be different...

This was in an episode of Law and Order. Or maybe I'm mis-remembering. But this isn't the first time I've heard about something like this happening.

It's not exactly a precisely thought out political piece, I know... It's hard to come up with something to say about a guy (with dreadlocks!) who takes pictures up anonymous skirts. For me anyway. I'm sure there are plenty of other SG members who can come up with some witty and hilarious comment. Until then, I guess you have to put up with me :-/

When you can manage something more grown-up than sneering, your opinion might be listened to. Just saying.
