DETROIT LAKES, Minn. (trfnews.i234.me) – On Monday, November 4th around 2:00 pm, police were called to El Loro restaurant after a report of an incident that occurred in the women’s bathroom.
It was reported that a male employee had been recording a female under her stall using his phone.
The woman who made the complaint told police she saw a phone being held by a hand from the next stall over while she was standing up and could see it angling towards her.
She then left the bathroom but asked one of her friends to go into the stall to confirm what had happened. The second woman also reported seeing the phone pointed in their direction, so they pounded on the door of the middle stall where a man later identified as Jesus Danery Hernandez-Espana was hiding.
Hernandez-Espana claimed he was cleaning the stall when confronted by police and one of his friends. However, during an interview with him, he handed over his phone to officers who found deleted video clips from that date which appeared to be recordings of a bathroom stall from underneath another stall.
One clip showed a woman naked from the waist down. Hernandez-Espana was subsequently booked into Becker County Jail on a gross misdemeanor charge of interfering with privacy.
