Teenage Voyeur Snaps Pictures Inside Morris Co. Bathroom Stall: Police

MORRIS COUNTY, NJ — A 19-year-old Butler man has been charged after officials say he secretly recorded women as they used the restrooms at a park in Boonton Township.

Justin N. Emker has been charged with three counts of third-degree invasion of privacy, Morris County Prosecutor Robert J. Carroll announced on Tuesday.

According to authorities, on July 22, 2023, a concerned citizen approached Boonton Township police officers at the Rockaway Valley Aerodrome (RVA) Fields in Boonton.

The citizen reported that an unknown person had been inside the women’s bathroom for an extended period of time.

When members of the local police department went to investigate, they discovered a man who was later identified as Emker inside one of the restrooms.

Further investigation revealed three videos on the defendant's cell phone that allegedly depict adult women's intimate parts while using the restroom, Carroll said.

Emker was arrested on the above charges on July 22.

Following his arrest, Emker was released under the terms of the Criminal Justice Reform Act with pretrial release conditions that included monitoring, being barred from returning to the RVA Fields and having limited cellular phone usage.

He is scheduled to appear in court on Sept. 6, 2023.

The investigation is still ongoing, according to authorities, and anyone with information about it is encouraged to contact the Morris County Prosecutor's Office's Sex Crimes / Child Endangerment Unit at 973-285-6200.
