Police: Landlord Spied on Female Tenants for Years
Monday , September 22, 2008

PHILADELPHIA —

A suburban Philadelphia landlord placed hidden
cameras throughout his apartments and secretly
videotaped female tenants for years, investigators said Monday.

Thomas Daley, 45, of Phoenixville, is accused of
wiretapping, invasion of privacy and criminal use
of a communications device, among other charges
stemming from the police search that yielded
cameras behind mirrors and in cabinets and ceiling fans, police said.

Hidden cameras and audio equipment were found in
the bedrooms, bathrooms and living rooms of at
least three apartments he owned in Norristown,
police said. Altogether, 16 apartments have been
searched or are in the process of being searched.

"He had such an elaborate system set up that when
someone in the apartment would activate a light
switch or a ceiling fan, he was able, via the
Internet, to retrieve the video images or audio,"
Montgomery County District Attorney Risa Ferman said.

No cameras were found in apartments currently
rented by men, she said. It was not immediately
clear how many properties Daley owns.

Ferman would not disclose more details on the
charges, including how many Daley faces or the
number of apartments or tenants the charges
involve. But police were getting numerous calls
from former female tenants about the arrest and expect to find more victims.

"This is really the tip of the iceberg in a much larger case," Ferman said.

Daley, who was arrested Friday, told police he
had been making the secret recordings for about
20 years, Ferman said. Police seized a cache of videotapes and DVDs.

"Some of the tapes were the old fashioned VHS
tapes, and the more recent were digital — so it
clearly spans several generations of technology,"
Ferman told The Associated Press.

Norristown police began to investigate after a
tenant found a camera in her apartment. Wires to
that camera led to a recording system in the basement.

Daley was being held on $1 million cash bail. His
preliminary hearing was set for Sept. 29.

It was not immediately clear if he has a lawyer,
and a message left at a phone number listed for
Thomas Delay in Phoenixville was not returned.
