Holt Man Charged Over Hidden Bedroom Camera
HOLT, Minn. (trfnews.i234.me) — A Holt man faces a privacy charge involving a camera hidden inside a weather station.
Jordan Scott Stone, 34, is charged in Marshall County District Court with interfering with privacy.
The charge is a gross misdemeanor under Minnesota Statute 609.746.
A conviction could bring up to 364 days in jail. It could also bring a fine of up to $3,000.
The allegations are detailed in a criminal complaint filed in Minnesota’s Ninth Judicial District.
Camera Allegedly Found in Bedroom
According to the complaint, the investigation began in Holt on June 10, 2026.
A woman reported finding a hidden camera inside a weather station mounted in a bedroom.
She told investigators that Stone had installed the device. She said she did not know it contained a camera.
The woman provided pictures showing the device mounted on a wall. She also shared camera views displayed on Stone’s phone.
The views allegedly showed the bed and a closet area inside the room.
The complaint states that other people had changed clothes inside that bedroom. Those people reportedly included a 14-year-old girl.

Motion Alerts Sent Images to Phone
Stone allegedly left the home after an argument and took the weather station with him.
Authorities arrested Stone on June 12 while he was returning to collect personal items.
The complaint says the device worked through a phone application. The application captured images when it detected motion.
Stone later acknowledged placing the device above a dresser, according to the complaint.
He also reportedly confirmed that the application used motion detection.
Stone allegedly said he had viewed himself and his wife through the camera.
He then ended the interview and requested an attorney.
Device Recovered During Vehicle Search
Investigators later searched a 2008 Chevrolet Suburban under a court-approved warrant.
They found a safe inside the vehicle. The weather station was recovered after the keys became available.
The complaint alleges Stone placed the camera without the woman’s knowledge.
Case information may be available through Minnesota Court Records Online.
A criminal complaint contains allegations and does not prove guilt. Stone is presumed innocent unless proven guilty in court.
