A professor who taught at San Francisco State and the University of San Francisco has been accused of filming students who used his home bathroom, with the camera “positioned to film the genital region of men facing the toilet to urinate,” the San Francisco Chronicle reports:
Mark Landis, 38, was charged with 15 misdemeanor counts of invasion of privacy.
The investigation began in November, according to court documents, when one guest found a camera hidden in a tissue box on a toilet in Landis’ home in the Castro, according to court documents.
The houseguest removed the memory card from the camera. When he watched it, he recognized himself and friends caught on video using the toilet.
Professor Landis doesn’t exactly sound like a good role model:
One of the victims told The Chronicle that Landis was friendly, open and fun-loving with not just his friends but also his students and co-workers. Landis had turned his home into a weekend party hub, the victim said.
“He was just the person that would host, and it was a safe place to go to,” said the man, whom The Chronicle is not identifying. “We basically hung out every single weekend for about two years, and we always hung out at his house because he always had a lot of alcohol.”
Landis, who was arrested on Wednesday, has been freed on $100,000 bail.
