BATON ROGUE, Louisiana (WDNews) – Louisiana State University cornerback Javien Toviano was arrested Sunday and accused of video voyeurism, according to the East Baton Rouge Parish Sheriff’s Office.
The sophomore was accused of recording himself having sex with his girlfriend without her consent.
According to the arrest warrant, Toviano used a clock with a built-in hidden camera to secretly record the couple having sex.
The victim told authorities that Toviano had secretly recorded them having sex in the past and that she had told him she didn’t consent to that.
According to the warrant, Toviano admitted in an interview that he used a hidden camera inside a clock to record himself and his girlfriend having sex without her consent. He told investigators that he would place the disguised camera on their dresser before they went to bed, authorities said.
According to Louisiana law, if Toviano is convicted he could face up to five years in prison and would have to register as a sex offender.
“The student-athlete has been suspended from all team activities, in accordance with departmental policies,” LSU said in a statement.
Toviano is a mechanical engineering student that signed with LSU last year as a freshman and appeared in all 13 games, starting in three of the last five.
