A Towson University student, whose professor is now accused of secretly recording women changing at a ritual bath in Washington, D.C., says she and several other students were asked to use the bath during a tour last fall.
Nicole Coniglio tells the student newspaper The Towerlight, that she and several female students were taken on a tour of the National Capitol Mikvah last fall, when they were students in a religious studies class taught by Rabbi Barry Freundel.
Freundel was arrested last week and charged with voyeurism for setting up the hidden camera and recording women who were using the changing rooms.
The incidents took place in June, and earlier this month.
Coniglio tells the newspaper, Freundel asked the students if they wanted to use the bath. Coniglio said that she declined, but two other female students, who were Jewish, accepted Freundel’s offer.
