Pervert put cameras in toilets

A SENIOR manager for a global property management company has admitted secretly filming thousands of people in toilets at two of Sydney’s busiest train stations and the state’s busiest shopping mall.

A NSW operations manager for Brookfield, Benjamin Moorhouse, 40, is due to be sentenced at Parramatta Local Court for filming thousands of people using unisex and accessible toilets at North Sydney and Parramatta train stations and Parramatta Westfield between February and March this year.

Moorhouse told police: “I could have filmed thousands. If people knew they would be disgusted. I need help.”

As NSW operations manager for Brookfield, Moorhouse managed the property needs of significant clients.

The married father of two from Parramatta has pleaded guilty to three counts of filming people in a private act to obtain sexual arousal, three counts of install a device to film, and producing child abuse material.

He placed cameras in toilets at stations on his daily commute from Parramatta to his office at North Sydney and was caught after a man spotted a hidden camera in a unisex toilet cubicle.

Police viewed the video files on the camera, which revealed a total of 29 members of the public being filmed engaging in a private act.

The recordings showed members of the public, including schoolchildren in uniform, using the toilet.
