Police Officer Indicted For Videotaping Teen Girl

NORTH LAUREL, Md. (AP) - A Laurel city police corporal has been indicted on charges that he secretly videotaped his girlfriend's teenage daughter in her bedroom.

Charging documents say 37-year-old Edward Charles Schmitt hid a video camera in the girl's bedroom closet and taped her from August 2009 to February 2010. He is also accused of photographing himself performing a lewd act

Schmitt is charged with one count of sexual abuse of a minor, two counts of visual surveillance and one count of camera surveillance.

Laurel police said in a statement Friday that Schmitt had been suspended since Howard County officers began investigating the case in May.
