Man Caught With 37 Upskirt Videos On His Phone Sentenced To Prison
BALTIMORE CO., Md. (WJZ) -- A man who was reportedly caught taking upskirt pictures and videos of women and girls at local grocery stores has been sentenced to prison.
45-year-old Ryan Keith Felps is set to spend the next two-and-a-half years in prison after pleading guilty to seven counts of conducting visual surveillance. Felps was sentenced to seven years, with all but two-and-a-half years suspended.
He will also be required to register as a sex offender.
According to the Baltimore County State's Attorney's Office, Felps was arrested on August 8, 2017, after a grocery store employee noticed he was acting suspiciously.
