A Yorkshire man who used a hidden camera to film his female colleagues using a staff toilet has been jailed for two years.

Adam Devaney was sentenced at York Crown Court on Friday after he admitted 20 counts of voyeurism in January this year. North Yorkshire Police said it had identified 18 victims during the course of its investigation. The force was caled to the 35-year-old’s workplace in April 2021 where staff had found a pen with a camera inside it hidden in a staff toilet. Devaney, of Selby, was arrested after the pen, his phone and laptop were all confiscated by the police for analysis.

In victim personal statements read to the court, one woman said Devaney’s actions had left her feeling “so degraded and violated”. Another said: “I struggle to use work staff toilets or public toilets without being scared that a hidden device may be recording me.
