Evansville Police have arrested 39 year old Steven Michael Sandleben on 3 counts of Voyeurism and drug charges.
On August 12, 2013, officers responded to a complaint at the Goodwill Store at 4660 W. Lloyd Expressway. The 911 caller believed Sandleben had video taped her 4 year old daughter, including video taping up her skirt.
Officers received information that led them to Sandleben’s house and he was questioned by investigators. While there was not enough evidence to make an immediate arrest, the investigation continued. A search warrant was obtained for his apartment and computers and camera equipment was seized.
While examining the electronics seized from Sandleben, multiple videos of women were found. The videos were of the victim’s buttocks and vaginal areas. The videos were taken in different locations around the Evansville area. The victims included juveniles and adults. None of the victims appeared to be aware they were being taped.
Sandleben was arrested on May 11, 2013 for taping a 14 year old girl at an east side store and was out on $500 bond when the August investigation began. He is now lodged in the Vanderburgh County Jail on $25,000 bond.
Sandleben is charged with 2 counts of Felony Voyeurism, 1 count of Misdemeanor Voyeurism, 1 count of Misdemeanor Possession of Marijuana, and 1 count of Misdemeanor Possession of Drug Paraphernalia.
