CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Catherine Barker said she is horrified she encountered a man with a cellphone in the bathroom.
“Humans have their right to their privacy, and I as a human, was violated by a man,” Barker said.
Barker said she was in the bathroom of the Belk building at Central Piedmont Community College when a man looked at her through the stall’s crack.
She said he then bent down under her stall.
She opened the door and caught him with his cellphone as he was trying to leave the bathroom.
“Now, I will look over my shoulder more than I already do now,” Barker said
Barker said she took the man's phone and dragged the man to security past newly installed security cameras.
She said the man claimed he was in the wrong bathroom.
According to CPCC, security officers reviewed the phone and didn’t find any photos. They also checked his social media accounts and didn't see anything posted.
So they let him walk away.
“They left me feeling vulnerable and unsafe,” Barker said.
Barker said a security officer told her that bathroom is where “all the pretty girls go."
Barker is calling on CPCC to continue the investigation.
She said security officers didn't take her seriously and she's worried this could be happening often on campus.
“It will happen again because he didn't get in trouble,” Barker said.
