‘Frozen in fear,’ woman describes discovering hidden camera at Norristown dance studio

Saying she was “frozen in fear,” the woman, who was 22 at the time, vividly recalled the moment she discovered a hidden recording device in the bathroom changing area at a Norristown dance studio where she sought lessons from an instructor she believed she could trust.

As the women he violated by secretly recording them in a bathroom of his Norristown dance studio courageously confronted him in court, the instructor who had a previous conviction for sexually assaulting a teenage Limerick girl learned he’ll spend more than two decades in prison for his betrayal.
