HIGHLAND PARK, Ill. - The one-time janitor of a suburban Chicago synagogue has been sentenced to 30 months of probation for installing a hidden camera in the building's restroom.

Salome Zequeida pleaded guilty last month to 15 counts of unauthorized videotaping of a victim younger than 18. He was found not-guilty of a child pornography charge. In addition to probation, he must spend a year in a work-release program.

Prosecutors alleged he made the recordings in March and April of last year at Congregation Solel in Highland Park. He was fired from the synagogue after the camera was found.

Zequeida's attorney, Jed Stone, said his client set up the camera to document who was plugging a toilet with tissue paper.
