Prosecutors file voyeurism charge in Tukwila LA Fitness case against Renton man

King County prosecutors charged a 48-year-old Renton man Feb. 2 with voyeurism after he allegedly took photographs inside of the women's locker room at the Tukwila LA Fitness, 350 Baker Blvd.

David L. Cameron is scheduled to be arraigned on the charge Feb. 16 at the Norm Maleng Regional Justice Center in Kent, according to the King County Prosecuting Attorney's Office. Cameron remained Feb. 6 in the county jail in Kent with bail set at $20,000.

Tukwila Police arrested Cameron Jan. 30 for investigation of voyeurism after he reportedly took photos of a 32-year-old woman inside the women's locker room. Officers arrested Cameron at the LA Fitness in Fairwood where he had checked in after visiting the Tukwila location. Both Cameron and the woman are members of LA Fitness.

According to charging papers, Cameron used a cellphone to record images of the woman. The woman told officers she was the only woman in the shower area of the locker room and had covered herself from armpit to mid-thigh with a towel. When she bent over to apply lotion to her legs, she saw a man standing in the shower area with a camera phone in his hand.

When the woman yelled "Hey," at the man, he left the area. LA Fitness has photos of its customers from when they joined the club. The woman looked at photos of men who had checked in that morning at the club and recognized Cameron as the one in the shower area.

Another woman customer reportedly saw Cameron walk out of the women's locker room just after he took pictures.

Cameron has prior convictions for stalking-domestic violence in 1999, first-degree malicious mischief-domestic violence in 1999, violation of a no-contact order in 1998 and fourth-degree assault-domestic violence in 1998.
