New Jersey State Judge Upholds Public Privacy Invasion Indictment

A New Jersey state judge on Monday refused to dismiss an indictment against a couple accused of taking revealing pictures of girls and women at public events. The couple were charged under a 2004 invasion of privacy law aimed at people who used technology to secretly record personal images of others, such as with a hidden camera in a bathroom.
