The investigation into the alleged recording began seven months ago when the woman discovered what appeared to be "suspicious" videos on Faybik’s cell phone, police said.

The victim believed she had been recorded in her bedroom and bathroom without her consent. It was unclear exactly how Faybik allegedly got access to the bedroom and bathroom or what his relationship was with the victim.

Detectives got a search warrant for electronic and storage devices and found about two years’ worth of videos taken in the victim’s bedroom and bathroom using hidden cameras.

Faybik was arrested last Tuesday and released after a court hearing the next day.
