Locker-room voyeur sentenced

A British judge says a voyeur who snooped on members of China's Olympic swimming team risks being sent to prison if he enters a female locker room in the next 5 years.

Declan Crosbie was sentenced Monday after he previously admitted a charge of trespass with intent to commit a sexual offense.

Prosecutors told Leeds Crown Court that the 25-year-old snuck into a locker room at a swimming training center, and was caught peeking over the top of cubicles as female Chinese Olympic athletes got changed.

When staff went to investigate, Crosbie hid in a cubicle and imitated a woman's voice.

Judge Peter Collier banned Crosbie from female changing rooms or toilets for 5 years. Any breach of that ban could see him jailed.
