Target's policy gave man access to six young girls

It happened again. Target's dangerous policy of allowing men to enter women's dressing rooms has resulted in possible sexual crimes against female customers – both women and underage girls.

In May, Sean Anderson was arrested for allegedly taking pictures of undressed females after drilling holes in women's dressing rooms in several Target stores in Pennsylvania.

After his arrest, police searched through Anderson's phone and found 56 images of women, 12 of whom were topless and one who was completely naked. They also found six images of young girls who were either partially or totally undressed, investigators said.

Here's the rub. Anderson allegedly drilled the holes on a prior visit. Target knew the holes were in the dressing rooms and knew that these holes allowed for "Peeping Toms" to spy on women undressing. Rather than protecting female customers by prohibiting men from the area, Target merely plugged the holes and continued to let men enter without restriction.

With something as simple as a ballpoint pen, Anderson returned and pushed the plugs out of the holes and used his phone’s camera to continue his disgusting crime of violating the privacy of Target's female customers over and over again.

Target had the ability to completely prevent this type of crime, yet it didn't. Target still has the ability to prevent this type of crime 100% of the time, yet it won't.

The bottom line is this: People who shop at Target and use its restrooms or dressing rooms are at risk for sexual exploitation.
