This past August, Nebraska resident Robert Reams and his family took a vacation in Denver, staying at the Tech Center Marriott. Little did they know that as they went about their activities, including changing clothes and bedding down for the evening, they were in full view of a camera installed by one Donald Fugate, perv. And guess what? He’s still out there. An Omaha TV station reports that hotel employees discovered the camera behind a pencil-tip-size hole in the wall, leading to Fugate’s arrest — but he accepted a plea bargain that reduced the original felony charge to a misdemeanor netting him two-years probation. Daddy Reams is understandably pissed, fearing that hotel-room photos of his kids (the youngest is eleven) will end up on the Internet someday. As for Fugate, he told authorities he didn’t snap anything of note — and why wouldn’t you trust a guy like him?
