Warren Man Charged After Peeping Into Teen’s Bathroom

Prosecutors say photos and videos on his phone show repeated surveillance as investigators seek other possible victims.

Overview

  • Police say officers responded to a 911 call early Thursday and found 22-year-old Justin Moore in the backyard before he ignored commands, fled through neighboring yards, and was taken into custody.
  • The Macomb County Prosecutor’s Office authorized multiple felony and misdemeanor counts including stalking of a minor, aggravated stalking, surveilling an unclothed person, two counts of using a computer to commit a crime, resisting and obstructing police, and a disorderly-person window-peeping charge.
  • Investigators report they recovered photos and videos on Moore’s phone that allegedly show him surveilling the 17-year-old on multiple occasions and say additional victims have contacted police or may exist.
  • At arraignment Moore pleaded not guilty, a judge set bond at $250,000, and bond conditions bar him from contacting the victim or witnesses and from having internet access; follow-up court proceedings have been scheduled.
  • Records show Moore is a registered sex offender on probation after convictions for first-degree home invasion and second-degree criminal sexual conduct, which increases prosecutorial scrutiny and has led police to ask the public to contact investigators with more information.
