A woman who had just used a public bathroom at a Spanish Fork gas station discovered that a camera was hidden on the toilet tank and her restroom visit was allegedly caught on video by a voyeur.
Police say Saturday night around 10:30 p.m. Mindy Carpowich was preparing to leave the bathroom stall at a Chevron station when she noticed a black wire dangling from behind the toilet tank.
After a closer inspection Carpowich discovered the wire was connected to a tiny camera drawing power from a 9 volt battery, all stowed behind the toilet.
“It was facing a little bit up so they could see everything,” says Carpowich.
Amanda Self, a friend of Carpowich, says she saw the station attendant, 45-year-old Timothy Anderson, disappear into a back room while Carpowich was using the restroom.
Carpowich took the camera and called police.
Officers say Anderson initially denied knowledge that the camera was planted on the toilet but in later interviews told Detective John Jackson of the Spanish Fork police department that he had setup the camera to watch women use the restroom.
Anderson, who has no criminal record, told police he had set up the camera in the bathroom on one other occasion.
Owners of the Chevron say Anderson had worked at the station for some time and was a good employee. Anderson no longer works at the Chevron and the business owners are cooperating with investigators.
The business owners say they are very upset and are offering an apology to the public.
Police say Anderson claims he destroyed the transmitter and monitor. Anderson told cops he did not have a recording device.
Timothy Anderson was cited for Voyeurism, a class A misdemeanor.
Carpowich says she feels violated, “You know someone’s looking at you and you have no clue.”"
