Man Pleads Guilty to Recording Girls in Hotel

A western Pennsylvania man has pleaded guilty to using a small "spy camera" to record two girls who were changing into bathing suits in a Pittsburgh hotel room.
 
Fifty-eight-year-old Louis Wilt, of New Florence, must return for sentencing Feb. 4 after pleading guilty to invasion of privacy and sexual abuse of children for the incident Aug. 8 at the Sheraton Station Square.
 
Police say the girls noticed a blinking red light with a tiny camera lens in the bathroom where they were changing, and the mother of one of the girls alerted hotel security.
 
Police later learned from Wilt's wife that he had ordered such a device using her online Amazon shopping account days before the incident.
 
Wilt knew the girls and had access to their room.
