A Bunnell man is facing a felony video voyeurism charge after he placed hidden cameras in the private areas of a home, according to the Bunnell Police Department.
Jonathan Bernard Mahan, 26, turned himself into the BPD on June 3. In February, a resident of the home called and told BPD officers they found two hidden video cameras that had been placed without their knowledge or consent, a press release said.
In an interview with Mahan, the suspect admitted to detectives he placed the surveillance equipment to "monitor the private activities of household members, including one minor," the press release said. Mahan initially allowed detectives to search his phone, but later rescinded his permission.
BPD detectives received search warrants for two residences and seized digital evidence and surveillance equipment and found video evidence on the equipment. The BPD is not releasing any further information to protect the identity of the victims, the press release said.
Mahan was charged with one count each of video voyeurism and unlawful use of a two-way communication device, both felony offenses under Florida law.
Anyone with relevant information is encouraged to contact the Bunnell Police Department at (386) 437-7508.
