Alleged 'Shower Spy' Found At Local Gym
Not really womens fitness news, but shocking either way!
---
DETROIT -- A local woman said someone took her picture while she was showering at her gym.
The woman, identified only as Tammy, said an employee at a Lifetime Fitness gym used his cell phone to spy on her in the family shower area.
"I'm very angry that his man is getting away with this, and he could possibly be taping other women and children," Tammy said.
Tammy contacted Rescue 4 after the incident.
Tammy said her workout routine turned bizarre a few months ago when she noticed what she thought looked like a camera at the Commerce Township Lifetime Fitness gym. Her daughter was sitting on a bench nearby.
"I looked down and noticed what looked like it was a camera, so I thought to myself, 'no, it can't be,''' Tammy said. "And I looked down again and it was there again."
Tammy said someone reached right under the shower door and held their cell phone to record her while she was naked.
"So disgusted I wrapped myself in a towel, whipped open the door and there I see the male employee of Lifetime fumbling with his phone right at the sink," she said.
Management at the gym told Tammy there was little they could do.
"They basically told me, 'Well there is nothing we can do, we don't want to take a report because we don't want any confusion,'" she said. "I said, 'Well the police need to be called.' They said, 'That's totally up to you.'"
Tammy did call the Oakland County Sheriff's Office. Deputies questioned the man.
According to police reports by Rescue 4, "There was a seven second video clip contained on the phone." And that forensic computer experts restored the deleted video clip from the phone.
Rescue 4 was able to obtain the video clip, but what it showed was perhaps more disturbing.
The woman on the clip was not Tammy.
According to the reports authorities found a "video that shows a person stepping out of a shower and a child sitting on a bench." But the seven second clip shows a woman with her baby in the shower."
Deputies confirm that the video was taken at the Commerce gym, and on Oct. 11 of 2008 at 5:53 p.m.
Lifetime said the employee has since been fired.

) so they would have had to do something. A pervert working for them in a place where people and children are undressed, and they did nothing, apart from firing him after the police got in to it...but not even a 'What were you doing in the female/family shower area?' I'm assuming men don't go in to that area. When I read about these sorts of things it makes me so glad that I workout at home.
