A rabbi has been accused of secretly videotaping more than 150 nude women at a Jewish ritual bath.

Barry Freundel was charged with voyeurism in October last year in relation to recordings of six women while he was at Kesher Israel Congregation in Georgetown. He denies the charges.

Following an investigation, it has been claimed Freundel had filmed 152 women.

During a meeting with victims Wednesday evening at the U.S. Attorney’s Office in Washington, prosecutors discussed the number of victims revealed by an investigation along with the benefits of a plea deal in the case.
