FBI Agent as Peeping Tom

The Charlotte Observer runs a McClatchy news story of an FBI special agent who was arrested for taking photos of a young woman trying on clothes in a New Jersey store changing room. The agent, one Danuel S. Brown, 30, used his cell phone camera and slid it under the door.

I cannot think of a federal crime which would require such surveillance. The FBI doesn't ever need this sort of story. Particularly not now with several of its top agents resigning or being fired for letting political bias shape their inappropriate involvement in, and before, the 2016 presidential campaign.

The nation's "premier police agency" will have to work extra hard to redeem its once-stellar reputation. Missteps like this perv are definitely retrograde.

Note: two different sources report his given name "Danuel," which I've no reason to believe is a typo although my spell-checker doesn't much like it. Hat tip to Lucianne.com for the link.
