James Hulme, 57, had been employed to do some plumbing work at a woman’s house in June 2018 in Nottingham. At that time, he covertly set up a camera system in an attempt to sᴘʏ on her.
When the woman spotted the camera and reported him to police, officers discovered this man had also filmed several other customers by ?????? ????????? ??????? in their bathrooms.
More ?.?.?.?.?.?.?.?.?.?.? came to light when police searched his address in Sherwood, Nottingham, and found 302 ?.?.?.?.?.?.?.? ?????? ?? ???????? on his home computers, and images of ??????? ?????? ?.?.? ???? ????? ??????.
Hulme pleaded guilty and was ?.?.?.?.?.? for 12 months at Nottingham Crown Court.
His offending came to light in 2018 when he was working at the property in Nottingham.
The householder had hired him for some plumbing work and confronted Hulme when she found a ??? ?????? attached to a sink in the downstairs toilet he had installed.
Hulme admitted being responsible and fled the property along with the recording device when the woman called the police.
Officers immediately set out looking for Hulme and arrested him after tracking him down a short time later.
During Hulme’s police interview, he admitted digitally recording the customer and ‘five or six others’ but he denied accessing ????? ?.?.?.?.? ????????.
PC Jonathan Cooper, who investigated this ?.?.?.?.?.?.?.?.?.?.?, said: ‘This was a gross breach of trust and invasion of privacy in a premeditated manner for his own ?.?.?.?.?.? ?????????????.
‘Hulme will have to live with this shame for the rest of his life. These offences were gross and his victims will no doubt live with this forever.
‘I hope this outcome serves not only as a comfort to Hulme’s victims and their families, but also as a warning to others who might be tempted to engage in ?.?.?.?.?.?.?.?.?.
‘His ??????????? for making ?.?.?.?.?.?.?.? ?????? of a child and possessing extreme ?.?.?.?.?.?.?.?.?.?.?.? ?????? should also serve as a stark ??????? to others that such ?.?.?.?.?.?.?.?.?.?.? does have consequences.
‘Behind every one of these sickening videos and images is a vulnerable child being ?.?.?.?.?.?.?.? ?.?.?.?.?.? by an adult in various parts of the world. The physical and emotional impact of that ?.?.?.?.?.? can and does have a devastating impact on those children as they grow older and we are determined to protect other children from a similar fate.’
