A passenger has been arrested on federal charges for allegedly hiding a camera in a bathroom on one of the world’s largest cruise ships, capturing footage of more than 150 people — including 40 to 50 minors, according to the FBI.
Jeremy Froias, who until this week worked as a cybersecurity officer for the Central Florida city of Kissimmee, was arrested on May 3 in Puerto Rico for video voyeurism and attempted possession of child exploitation material.
“We are aware of an incident that occurred on board Harmony of the Seas’ April 29 cruise,” the cruise company said in a statement.was immediately reported to local and federal law enforcement and the guest involved was removed from the ship by authorities for further investigation. As this is an active case, we are unable to share any more details at this time.”
Interviewed by security workers on the ship around midnight on May 1, Froias admitted that he put the camera in the bathroom and said he realized it had been discovered earlier that evening after he tried but failed to find it in the bathroom. Footage shows that he returned to the bathroom at some point that day to adjust the camera’s angle.
