Peeping centre man gets probation Council to discuss extra security
(about 16 hours later)
A former assistant manager of a Londonderry leisure centre, convicted of peeping at a naked woman, has been put on probation for two years. Derry City Council is to discuss extra security for its leisure centres after a senior manager was convicted of peeping at a naked woman.
Martin Carlin, of Ballyarnett Village, carried out the offence in August 2007 at Templemore Sports Complex. Martin Carlin, of Ballyarnet village in Derry, was sentenced to two years probation and put on the Sex Offenders register for five years.
A judge said Carlin's behaviour was disgusting and heinous and said it was going on for a considerable period of time against other unsuspecting women. He was also dismissed from his job at Derry City Council.
Carlin, 57, was also put on the sex offenders' register for five years. "His behaviour was totally unacceptable," the chair of the Council's Development Committee said.
He was convicted of voyeurism in June after peeping through a keyhole at the woman, who was drying herself in a female changing area. "It is not something Derry City Council wants to re-occur in any of our leisure facilities and we are obviously putting measures in place to ensure something like this cannot happen again," said Lynn Fleming.
The maximum sentence for voyeurism, which only became an offence under the Sexual Offences Act five years ago, is two years' imprisonment. Carlin was convicted of voyeurism in June after peeping through a keyhole at a woman who was drying herself in a female changing area.
