CENTRAL ISLIP, N.Y., Aug. 21 (UPI) -- A New York magician who offered free photo shoots at his home has been charged with secretly taping female customers changing their clothes, authorities said.
Two girls, aged 10 and 14, and their mother complained to police about Robert Infantino of Central Islip, N.Y., saying the self-styled "Long Island's Favorite Magician" videotaped them as they were changing outfits, Newsday reported Thursday.
Suffolk County, N.Y., authorities say Infantino, 50, was charged with three counts of second-degree unlawful surveillance and said he would be arraigned Thursday at First District Court in Central Islip.
Newsday says Infantino lists "Lolita" as one of his favorite books on his MySpace page and claims an affiliation with local schools on Long Island. He also reportedly claims to have won a $10,000 grand prize on ABC's "America's Funniest People."
