Man Convicted Of Taking Pictures Of Women Without Consent
The above linked story caught my eye so thought I would share.
I can't help thinking there is more to this story than being reported in the article.
I say this because just taking pictures of people from your own property is not illegal, right?
Or has the law changed and we are now at risk of ending up on the sex offenders register?

BBC News said:An Aberdeen man has admitted taking more than 70,000 photos of women walking past his flat.
Oil worker Andrew Lawrence, 45, admitted breach of the peace by taking the shots without their permission.
Police uncovered 71,600 images on his laptop and camera when they confronted him following a tip-off.
Sentence was deferred for background reports. Lawrence was placed on the sex offenders register and released on bail.
