Florida man admits to recording hundreds of videos up women's skirts, deputies say

A former employee at a Florida gas station has admitted to secretly recording hundreds of photos and videos up women's skirts, according to the Polk County Sheriff's office.

Polk County deputies initially responded to a Circle K on Sand Mine Road around 10 a.m. on Aug. 31 after a woman reported feeling someone poke her on her lower back while using a self-checkout. She looked behind her and said a man was walking away.

She told deputies that she believed the man had attempted to take a photo of her, according to the arrest report.

Detectives determined using surveillance video from inside the store that the man – later identified as Christopher Kilpatrick – had exposed himself and poked the woman. Video allegedly showed him exhibiting similar behavior to another woman earlier.

Further security video from the same day allegedly showed Kilpatrick recording photos and videos looking up the skirts of two unsuspecting women, deputies said.

Kilpatrick was interviewed, and his cell phone was seized.

PCSO said Kilpatrick confessed to his actions and admitted "that he has done this to between 300-400 women, including juveniles."

He was arrested and booked into jail on several charges, including exposure of sexual organs and simple battery.

PCSO is asking anyone they believe to be victimized by Kilpatrick to call the Polk County Sheriff's Office Special Victims Unit at 863-298-6200.
