Last year he was named detective of the year, but now a 23-year veteran of the Metropolitan Police Department has pleaded guilty to secretly videotaping his adult stepdaughter while she was undressing.
Detective Keith Tabron pleaded guilty to multiple counts of video surveillance with prurient intent.
According to prosecutors, Tabron videotaped his stepdaughter in the bathroom as she was getting in and out of the shower as well as in her bedroom as she was undressing.
Tabron was charged with 50 counts of secretly videotaping the victim over the course of nine months.
The victim realized she was being spied on when she noticed fresh paint in her bathroom. When she inspected the paint she found one of the cameras.
The victim called a cousin who found the second camera in her bedroom. They traced the wires back to Tabron’s home office and called police.
Because Tabron had no previous criminal record prosecutors did not request that he be required to register as a sex offender. Surveillance with prurient interest is a registerable offense in Maryland.
