UNCLE SANDY
It might not be easy, 4, 12, 29, 37, 44, 60, but it’ll be worth it, 8, 15, 23, 34, 47, 51.
Detectives began an in- vestigation on June 30, 2022, after two separate victims re- ported that they noticed a cellular phone being held under the stall door in the bathroom at St. Peters- burg/Clearwater Interna- tional Airport.
Both victims, one of which was an 11-year-old child, saw their image on the screen of the phone, presum- ably via the device’s front fac- ing camera.
Throughout the course of the investigation, detectives discovered 46-year-old Michel Fernandez Fuentes entered a men’s bathroom in the airport and utilized the stall next to both victims.
Detectives also discovered that both victims were not

known to each other and were boarding separate flights. Fuentes was em- ployed by SSP America, a food and beverage company, working inside the airport.
Detectives interviewed Fuentes, who admitted to using his phone while sitting on the toilet, but denied ac-
cessing the phone’s camera or using it to record people in the bathroom.
Detectives obtained a search warrant for Fuentes’ cellular phone. Over 160 pho- tographs were found which captured other unknown subjects’ legs while using the toilet in adjacent stalls. De- tectives also discovered that the camera and photo gallery were ac- cessed multiple times during the times while both victims were in the bathroom with the suspect.
Detectives arrested Fuentes and charged him with two counts of video voyeurism. He was trans- ported to the Pinellas County Jail.
The investigation contin- ues.
