Filming up women's skirts is ruled legal

up women's skirts, though "disgusting and reprehensible," isn't
actually against the law.
"I think that's ridiculous," said Jang, now 28,

Sorrells already served his
two-month sentence in King County Jail. He was court-ordered to undergo treatment
for sexual deviancy and "intends to remain in treatment" even
though it's no longer required of him, according to his attorney, Ken Sharaga.
Sharaga said the court's

"A citizen has to be warned by clear language in a statute
that particular conduct is a crime in order to be punished as a criminal," he said.
"Something can be wrong and offensive and still not be a
crime."
The state's voyeurism law protects people who are in a
place where they "would have a reasonable expectation of privacy" --
meaning the person could expect to be able to undress in seclusion or "be
safe from hostile intrusion or surveillance."
But the court found the law doesn't apply to
filming people in a public place, even if it's underneath their clothes.
"It is the physical location of the person that is
ultimately at issue, not the part of the person's body,"

TBS
anchorwomen dread the psycho peepers
Being
a television anchorwoman carries a lot of
perks. It also carries a lot of hassles, especially
at the TBS network.
Recently,
underground web sites have sprung up, created by and for crazy fans looking for
a bit of titillation. On these sites, fans are exchanging pictures of
anchorwomen, many of which are "panchira" shots —
chance moments caught on film of anchorwomen's
underwear thanks to a gust of wind or a
strategically placed camera at the bottom of the stairs. Other photos were
obviously taken by hidden cameras.
Women
at TBS are expecting more trouble after the news division moves to a different
floor. Said one TBS staffer: "The news division is moving down to the 5th
floor from the 7th floor in order to improve their efficiency with
the production department. However, all anchorwomen are strictly against it.
"Right
now their security is very tight but once they move to the 5th
floor, it will be lax. For example, they
will have to share the toilets with more people. Anchorwomen are worried that
will simply increase the chances of getting photographed by hidden cameras.
As it is now, a lot of them have had personal items
stolen this year."
The
anxiety of anchorwomen at TBS is no exaggeration. About three years ago, a TBS
reporter was arrested for frequent peeping in anchorwomen's toilets. He was
also taking pictures of them with a hidden camera.
A
worker in the news division says TBS doesn't give popular anchorwomen special
treatment. "They commute by train like the rest of us. As a result, some
of the most popular ones have been stalked.
There have been cases of fans show up in the middle of a dark street on their way
home and trying
to hug the women."
Having
long complained that the station does nothing to protect them, the anchorwomen
are understandably incensed over the proposed floor move. "TBS is doing
nothing to protect us from all these creeps," said one,
adding they are now thinking about a signature collecting campaign against the
move. (Translated by Sachie Kanda)

attorney, K.O. Herston, filed the lawsuit in
"The
allegations have been turned over to the proper authorities, who we are
cooperating with fully," said Doug Allen, the general manager of the downtown
Marriott.
Allen
declined to comment any further, citing an ongoing investigation by the
According
to the lawsuit, Brewer, 27, discovered the camera on the morning of July 11.
"Thinking
it might be an insect, Mr. Brewer swatted at the black spot, thereby
inadvertently breaking the plastic cover on the light fixture," Herston wrote in the
lawsuit. "He called the front desk,
apologized and offered to pay for the fixture."
But
while he was waiting for someone to fix the damage, Brewer noticed wires and
discovered a small video camera.
A
further look by security personnel confirmed that it was an elaborate, self-contained, video recording system.
"The
video camera was connected to the bathroom light switch such that the camera
would begin recording when the bathroom light was turned on and would stop
recording when (it) was turned off,"
the lawsuit states.
Herston said
that the equipment had a film of dust on it
indicating that it had been there for some time. It also had a piece of tape on
it indicating the room number, Room 253.
Herston said
that Marriott employees let Brewer view the
tape in their presence but refused to give
it to him.
The tape
and video equipment have been turned over to the Sheriff's Department.
The
Sheriff's Department also has refused to give him the tape, Herston said.
He
also said he's not sure why the Sheriff's Department is investigating the case
since the Knoxville Police Department is next door to the Marriott.
Herston said
the detective handling the case told him, "'All I know is that I was
called to the scene and I responded to the call.'"
Marriott
officials said they have inspected other
rooms at the hotel but have refused to say what, if anything, was found, Herston said.
"There
are a lot of questions and we need some answers," Herston
said before adding, "How many other
people were taped?"
Martha
Dooley, a spokeswoman for the Sheriff's Department, said the reason the tape isn't being turned over is because,
"It is an ongoing investigation."
As
for the office handling the case, Dooley said, "We routinely answer calls
from businesses and residences in the city as well as the county."
Someone
from the hotel apparently called the Sheriff's Department directly.
KPD
spokesman Darrell DeBusk said that KPD did not
receive a call from the hotel.
The
lawsuit contends that Brewer has suffered
harm as a result of the discovery.
"In
Mr. Brewer's case, he has become paranoid," Herston indicated.
"He hates to travel now and that has
caused tension at work since his job
requires so much travel. When he does
travel, he spends a lot of time going over every inch of his hotel room to make
sure it is safe.
"This
has really affected his career and well-being."
In
addition to the $1.5 million in damages, Brewer also seeks the return of all
copies of the videotaped recording of him.
Brewer
has not been back in
"If
he comes back, he certainly won't stay at the Marriott," Herston said.

Use
of 'date rape' drug surges
By
Donna Leinwand,
Photo
By
Bob Riha, Jr., AP
Kevin
Newell, 22, used GHB for 18 months because he liked the sense of mellow
euphoria it gave him.
GHB, the highly addictive
"date rape" drug outlawed by Congress two years ago, is becoming increasingly popular on college campuses and at
raves even though it can trigger potentially
fatal comas.
The
emergence of GHB as a recreational drug comes as law enforcement officials are
focusing on Ecstasy, a more widely used club drug. GHB's surge has surprised police and health officials, who for
years have treated the mixture of common industrial chemicals as something that
few people would consume by choice.
Unlike
Ecstasy or cocaine, GHB (gamma hydroxybutyrate) gives
users no sense of euphoria. The slightly bitter liquid puts users in a dreamy stupor,
or worse, a coma that can kill them. Government and law enforcement education efforts
regarding GHB have dealt largely with warning women about predators who could
spike their drinks with the drug, rather
than the risks of taking it for fun.
"Something
that puts you into a coma is not something (most people) voluntarily do," says Alan Leshner, a former
executive director of the National Institute on Drug Abuse in
But
now drug abuse agencies nationwide are placing more emphasis on the dangers of
GHB, which also is known as "G,"
"Liquid X" and "Easy Lay" among teenagers and young adults
who use it.
Emergency
room admissions involving GHB nearly quadrupled nationwide from 1998 to 2000,
when 4,969 cases were reported, the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services
Administration says. U.S. officials do not keep statistics on how many people
use particular drugs, but they say survey
data and anecdotal evidence — such as drug seizures and activity by drug
traffickers — indicate that Ecstasy easily remains the most popular club drug.
And
yet, more people are overdosing on GHB than Ecstasy. In 2000, 2,482 GHB users
visited the emergency room for an overdose compared with 1,742 Ecstasy users.
Health officials say that's an indication that GHB
is more dangerous and gaining in popularity.
The
Drug Enforcement Administration says that 73 people have died from taking GHB
since 1995. There were 27 Ecstasy-related
deaths from 1994 to 1998, according to the most recent figures available from
The
federal Drug Abuse Warning Network reports that GHB is appearing most often in
One
of GHB's recent victims was Alexander Klochkoff, a 20-year-old sophomore at the
Despite
the risks, some youths continue to take the drug.
Some
point out that it gives them an alcohol-like buzz-known as a "G-ber daze" — without their having to down several
expensive cocktails. Unlike alcohol, GHB has
no telltale odor that parents or police might detect. It also is cheap ($5
to $10 for a shot-glass dose) and easy to mix, using recipes that are available
on the Internet.
Although
Congress made GHB illegal in 2000 and authorities have arrested dozens of
suppliers, the ingredients to make the drug
are available many places where industrial cleaning solvents are sold. They can
be obtained through foreign outlets, Internet sites and hardware stores.
"If
people are motivated to get it, it's relatively easy to get," says Jim Hall of the Up Front Drug Information Center in
Michael
Scrimo, 20, who lives in a suburb of New York City,
says he first came across GHB three years ago in nightclubs where Ecstasy,
cocaine and the veterinary anesthetic ketamine (known
as "Special K") were widely available.
Scrimo says he
was looking to buy some Ecstasy pills when a friend offered him GHB. At the
time, Scrimo's personal life had taken a plunge. He
had blown his chances of getting a college athletic scholarship and had been kicked
out of his high school because he was arrested for dealing drugs on campus. He wanted something that would help him zone out and forget his problems.
He
tried GHB and liked it.
"I
felt like really numb, all five senses. I couldn't walk straight, I couldn't
hear, I couldn't see," says Scrimo, who wound up being addicted to GHB and other drugs
and recently spent time in a drug rehabilitation program in
Scrimo says he
usually took GHB in gel caps. He says he would
"take two or three or four at a time, and have a black-out night." Since then, he says, "I've
heard that people have died on GHB. I could have died so many times."
Bodybuilders
were first victims
Much
of the nation first took notice of GHB in the mid-1990s, when dozens of women
across the
At the
time, GHB solutions of varying potency were legal and were displayed in health
food stores and gyms, marketed under names such as "Enliven," "Renewtrient" and "Blue Nitro." Health
supplement distributors touted them as natural formulas to promote sleep, slow
the aging process and build muscle.
There
is little scientific data to suggest that GHB affects aging or muscle-building,
but that didn't stop bodybuilders from snapping up GHB products. Muscle men in
A
form of GHB occurs naturally in the body,
doctors say. The brain uses minute
quantities of it to shut off one function so that another can begin. Many GHB users assume
incorrectly that increasing GHB levels in the body is either harmless or
beneficial, Leshner
says. But the brain's delicate chemical
balance is upset easily, he says, and too much GHB can depress breathing and nervous system
functions to the point that users are unable to roll over in their sleep.
Those
who die after taking GHB usually "fall on their faces and smother, or they
aspirate (on their own vomit) into their lungs and suffocate," Leshner says.
When
GHB users combine the drug with a shot of caffeine and ephedrine, the chemical
found in many cold remedies and diet pills, the users feel disembodied, says Trinka Porrata, a drug consultant and former narcotics officer for
the Los Angeles Police Department. "At
first, it's an anti-depressant," Porrata says. "In
four to eight months, it takes over your body and soul. It owns you."
Gamma
hydroxybutyrate's precursors are cleaning solvents
called gamma butylactone and 1,4 butanediol
— chemical cousins that the body converts to GHB.
GHB
and the chemicals used to make it are tightly controlled and are illegal for
human consumption. But anyone with Internet access can order ingredient kits
from Web sites where they are advertised as natural formulas for cleaning
printer ink jet cartridges and weight belts.
Drinks containing GHB are still sold on
Japanese, Greek and other foreign Web sites.
Last
June, police in Santa Clara County, Calif., arrested a 26-year-old man who had
ordered gamma butylactone and 1,4 butanediol
over the Internet, says Robert Mecir, who commands an
investigative team for the California Department of Justice. The man, who was
charged with possession of GHB, told police he had taken six doses a day for
the past three years, says Mecir, who adds that he
has seen use of the drug in his area jump recently.
Like Leshner, many doctors
and health officials who study trends in
drug use continue to be puzzled by GHB's appeal.
"As
a physician, I can't say if you take it you're going to fall over dead, but I can
say you are playing Russian roulette," says Westley Clark, director of the Center for Substance Abuse
Treatment in Rockville, Md., a division of the U.S. Department of Health and
Human Services. "Do you feel lucky, as
Clint Eastwood would say?"
Scrimo and
other recovering GHB addicts say that one of
the scariest things about the drug is that the potency of doses can vary
widely, depending on how the ingredients are mixed.
'Tons
of people buying it'
Jen,
19, who grew up in a Philadelphia suburb and recently was treated for drug
addiction at the Caron Foundation in Wernersville, Pa., says her boyfriend used to mix GHB in the kitchen. She says he measured
the chemicals, heated them to make a potent-smelling base and then threw in ice
to cool and dilute the base. Then they poured the finished GHB solution into empty Gatorade
bottles and sold quarts for as much as $200.
"There
were tons of people buying it," says
Jen, who asked that her last name not be
used. The
chemicals were "so cheap and it was a great way to get screwed up."
Jen
says she often used GHB to try to mellow out while coming off a cocaine high.
She says she last drank GHB about a year ago. "If
you take too much, it'll make you go into a G-ber
daze," Jen says. "You start to sweat. You're not conscious at all.
You won't remember. You twitch. It's scary."
The
ratio of water to chemicals determines the potency of a batch of GHB, putting users at the mercy of kitchen
chemists.
Kevin
Newell, 22, of Lake Forest, Calif., says he never knew how much GHB was in the
cupfuls he used to swig. Newell, 18 at the time, also used heroin and speed,
but says that GHB was cheaper and easier to
find. He is now in court-ordered drug
treatment at
Treatment
centers across the
Many
who have observed the drug scene for years say that hospital and treatment
center data underestimate the GHB problem
because many doctors don't think to ask
patients about the drug.
"There's
always a learning curve," Falkowski says. "Most
of the drug abuse surveys (given to teenagers, adult drug users and medical
personnel) do not even include a question about GHB."
Doctors
are still trying to set protocols to treat GHB addiction and ease the excruciating withdrawal that addicts face. Those being treated for addiction generally become anxious and can't sleep. Some become
delirious. Treatment
centers report that addicts trying to withdraw from GHB often attempt suicide.
