A former Houston elementary school janitor was accused of hiding two cameras in two staff bathrooms and secretly recording at least two teachers, court records show.

       The man was arrested on Jan 3 and charged with invasive visual recording, according to Harris County court records.

       The janitor also recorded his own face while he was installing the cameras, records show.

       He admitted to purchasing the cameras and hiding them in the restrooms, the records say.
