Creepy Losers Link
"CALGARY -- A 26-year-old shopper was shocked to find a man secretly filming under her skirt but managed to grab him by the lapels and yell for help. Dorianne Bamber said she was shopping at the North Hill Centre on Tuesday and had stopped to look at Halloween costumes when a man came up and stood behind her.
"He was too close," said Bamber, a public relations student at Mount Royal College.
When Bamber turned to tell the well-dressed and groomed older man to step back, her eyes were drawn to a canvas briefcase.
She saw a tiny camera poking out of the corner.
"The whole five stages of grief passed through me in five seconds," said Bamber, who was wearing a skirt without underwear. "
Given the rapid pace of technology, Canada's laws always seem to be lagging behind but hidden cameras have been around for at least 20 years... Stories like these always seem to make the headlines but little changes have been made from a criminal code point of view. Apparently the loser more or less smiled and didn't even try to run as this girl freaked out on him as he knew the police couldn't charge him with more than mischief.
God only knows what creeps like this Don Hardie, 57 did during the Red Mile. Reminds me of the old creepy guy that will hang out at a club alone in a corner, checking out the girls 40 years younger than him.
As a sidebar, how embarassing is it to have the world know you went commando? Why the heck did that bit of info make it into the story? She's going to hear about that one for a while.... today's Herald has a letter from someone "scolding" her about this.
