CHESTERFIELD, MO (KTVI-FOX2now.com)—
Investigators call the case troubling. A Chesterfield man is charged with secretly videotaping women in the ladies bathroom of the company where he is the president and C.E.O.Chesterfield police believe there are at least three to five victims. But there could be more.
"In this case these people were victimized and it is very disturbing to us as a police agency," said Lieutenant Steven Lewis with the Chesterfield Police Department.
55 year old Jack Eigles is charged with second degree invasion of privacy of multiple individuals. Chesterfield police say Eigles secretly recorded women using the ladies bathroom at Corporate Cash Flow Solutions on Long Road in Chesterfield. Eigles founded the company which bills and collects payments for student loans.
Lewis explained, "It appears that he had placed this camera over a period of time and was doing just that- was videotaping those persons that came into the women's facility to use the restroom."
Court documents describe the camera as a "hidden camcorder." The documents say "multiple women can be seen on camera in various stages of undress." Lewis told us investigators have seized the hidden camcorder as well as the revealing tapes. Lewis would not disclose many details about where the camera was placed.
"The only thing I can characterize is that it wasn't an obvious location. It's not something the victims would have noticed or would have identified as a covert camera," said Lewis.
A spokesperson for Corporate Cash Flow Solutions told us Eigles is now on a leave of absence. A statement from the company reading "Corporate Cash Flow Solutions is fully supporting the pending investigation and takes it very seriously. The company does not condone and will not tolerate any actions such as those that have been alleged. We also have taken very aggressive action to guard against this ever happening again."
Police think there may be more victims possibly in more locations. Lewis told us, "We believe it's entirely possible that this is not the only incident or location where this occurred. And if that's the case we would definitely like to find out more information."
Lewis said police have been on this case since July when they were first made aware of the allegations. Eigles was officially charged in October and is out on bond.
We tried to contact Eigles' attorney but did not get a call back. We also went to Eigles' Chesterfield home but was told he was not available. The case is set to the Grand Jury later this month.
