Federal agent arrested for taking photos in women's restroom, UW-Madison police say
Wisconsin State Journal ^ | Dec 20, 2017 | Logan Wroge

A federal agent was arrested Tuesday for taking pictures in the women’s restroom of a UW-Madison residence hall, the university’s police department said.

Justin T. Fahy, of Monona, allegedly went into a bathroom at Witte Residence Hall, 615 W. Johnson St., on Friday afternoon, put his cell phone under an occupied stall and took pictures, police said. The 27-year-old Fahy, who identified himself as a special agent for the federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF), told police it was a misunderstanding and that he mistakenly entered the wrong restroom, said UW police spokesman Marc Lovicott.

Ashlee Sherrill, a spokeswoman for the ATF’s St. Paul Field Division, confirmed Fahy is employed at the bureau.

Police obtained a search warrant for Fahy’s phone and reviewed security cameras from inside the residence. Lovicott said police determined he had been in the first-floor restroom for at least 14 minutes.

“In addition, Fahy’s phone had been recently restored to a backup point from earlier this year, leading UWPD investigators to believe he was likely trying to delete evidence,” Lovicott said.

Fahy was taken to the Dane County Jail on a tentative felony charge of attempting to take photos depicting nudity and disorderly conduct, Lovicott said, while he has also been formally banned from the campus.

“Allegations like these cannot and will not be taken lightly,” ATF Acting Special Agent in Charge Kirk Howard said in a statement. “We will make sure that allegations of impropriety are handled appropriately.”

Somehow, I have never been turned on by the thought of a woman dropping a deuce. Why would I want a picture? What a perv.

Well, at least one of them was arrested. That seems to be the norm today. Pervs get busted, everything else is perfectly OK. Protecting the matriarch of the Clinton crime family Hillary F. Clinton from prosecution, OK. 110 violations of the espionage act, OK. Racketeering, OK. A federal agency interfering in a US Presidential election, OK. Sexting and taking photos in a womans bathroom: BUSTED!

An ATFE agent who would slobber at the opportunity to charge a FFL dealer for the most obscure paperwork discrepancy or typo can’t discern between the men and women’s restrooms.

Eight years of obozo and people are so dumbed down they can even read the pictures on the restrooms.

Mueller would hire him.

Well, he still has to fill out the one-question application first.

Someone should tell him:

His bathroom is labeled “men”
Her bathroom is labeled “wo-men” (Whoa! Men!)

That was one of my grandfather’s favorite jokes.
