Birmingham Law Student Jailed for Secretly Filming More Than 460 Males in Public Toilets

The judge said his manipulation of children on Snapchat required an immediate prison term.

Overview

  • Birmingham Crown Court sentenced Troy Green on April 15 to 22 months after he admitted voyeurism and child-image offences.
  • Police recovered more than 500 videos showing about 465 males filmed without their knowledge in toilets across Birmingham, including Grand Central, churches, bars, a university, and a trampoline park.
  • CCTV at the Rush trampoline park showed him follow a 10-year-old into the toilets, and a later search found fresh recordings from Grand Central.
  • He used a Snapchat alias to push children into dares to undress, with clips stored on Google Drive, a factor the judge said ruled out a suspended sentence.
  • The court imposed a Sexual Harm Prevention Order and ten years of sex-offender reporting, measures meant to manage risk after release and reassure families and venues.
