An arrest report has been filed against the Assistant Principal of Pensacola High School. According to the report, he is accused of secretly recording a 17-year-old girl while she was in her bedroom, without her knowledge or consent.
According to a report from WEAR News, a 55-year-old man named Sean Roby was arrested by Pensacola Police on Wednesday night. He is facing a felony charge of video voyeurism. He is currently being held in Escambia County Jail on a bond of $15,000.
During Roby’s bond hearing, the individual who claims to be the victim spoke on Thursday afternoon, revealing that the reported crime took place in 2019 when she was 17 years old.
WEAR News obtained the arrest report on Friday, which provides information about the charge. The reported incident occurred at a residence, rather than within the school premises.
The victim contacted the Pensacola Police on Wednesday to report an unsettling video file that was discovered only recently.
Based on the report, she informed the police that she suspected Roby of secretly recording her while she was showering.
According to the report, the victim noticed an object resembling a cellphone under the door where the crack meets the flooring after getting out of the shower. According to her, the object had a similar color to Roby’s phone.
According to the report, the victim noticed the incident occurring multiple times before taking measures to prevent it from happening again. She mentioned that she would also implement precautionary measures, such as showering when Roby was not at home, to prevent a recurrence of this incident.
As per the report, in February 2022, Roby provided the victim with his laptop to assist with her college curriculum. The victim mentioned that it still had Roby’s previous files.
According to the police report, the victim discovered a video of herself in the nude on her laptop in early August. According to her, the filming took place without her consent.
According to the report, she provided the police with the video from March 2019.
Based on the report, the video was captured outside the victim’s bedroom window. The police report mentioned that a person was seen walking across the room, and later a white towel fell off revealing their nude buttocks.
