A maintenance worker at St. Paul’s Episcopal Church has been arrested as a suspect in the recording of women in the bathroom, according to the Salinas Police Department.
Officers were called to the church in south Salinas on Friday after a church member found a small video camera in the woman’s bathroom that appeared to have fallen from a hidden location.
With the help of the church administration, officers contacted Daniel Murguia, 60, a longtime maintenance worker for the church. The investigation revealed he was the owner of the camera and had placed it in various bathrooms within the church to record unsuspecting females.
Officers were able to determine at least 20 different instances where females were unknowingly recorded. Other electronic devices were seized from his home and will be reviewed by the Salinas Police Department’s Computer Forensic Unit. Detectives are working to identify any victims and the investigation is ongoing.
