Fort Collins Invasion of Privacy for Sexual Gratification Attorney | Definition of Peeping in Larimer County

The Larimer County, Colorado law definition of Invasion of Privacy for Sexual Gratification – C.R.S. 18-3-405.6 – is:

(1) A person who knowingly observes or takes a photograph of another person’s intimate parts without that person’s consent, in a situation where the person observed or photographed has a reasonable expectation of privacy, for the purpose of the observer’s own sexual gratification, commits unlawful invasion of privacy for sexual gratification.

A locker room would definitely be a place where a person has a ‘reasonable expectation of privacy.’ However, simply looking at the woman would not meet the standard of this crime. The woman would have to be undressed, with intimate parts exposed in order for this crime to be charged.
