Rancho Cucamonga, CA – Is David Mitchell Clark your electrician? Did he ever install electrical outlets in your house? If you live in Anaheim, Fontana, Corona, or the San Bernardino Mountains in California, you might wanna have a look at your bathroom walls. David Mitchell Clark may have been watching you.
So far, six victims have been identified, but investigators say that there are definitely more. Clark, 34, got caught red-handed (red-tooled?) in August when he left a power tool next to a toilet while he was working in a client’s home. Problem was, the tool had a camera attached to the end.
When confronted, Clark said that he had to use the camera attachment so he could lower the tool into the walls and view footage while he works – kind of like microsurgery, only with walls and peeping. He conveniently didn’t mention that he left the cameras inside the walls. Or the downloaded video he was obtaining. Because David Mitchell Clark is a perv like that.In September, a female resident of the home where the tool was discovered (pun intended) still felt uneasy. So she called police, who came out to search her house. To everyone’s surprise, officers found a video recorder with an audio receiver installed in the woman’s attic. There was footage on the camera hard drive of a woman changing clothes in her bathroom in a totally different house. When police went to the bathroom to check it out, they found a wireless camera installed and hidden in the plate of an electrical socket.
Turns out that Clark, working under the name DMC Electrical Services, was putting the cameras in the homes of women who hired him. He’d then drive by the homes later and wirelessly download the video and images off the cameras. When police searched Clark’s home, they found footage of at least six victims.
Clark was arrested and taken in for questioning, where he admitted to the counts they could prove – but also said he’d done this to many women. His reason? He thought “they were hot”. Clark told investigators, “It was an opportunity that I should have never considered, but I did it, and it’s going to ruin my life.”
And your victims will never change clothes, shower, pee or do anything without wondering who’s watching. Thanks for that, David Clark, you heartless bastard.
Police believe there may be at least twenty other victims in the San Bernardino area. If you have used DMC Electrical or know someone who has, please call authorities at 909-477-2859.
David Mitchell Clark is charged with two counts of first-degree residential burglary and two counts of disorderly conduct. He pleaded not guilty last week, and remains in custody at West Valley Detention Center on bonds totaling $285,000. Clark is scheduled to be in court today. I think a few years without privacy is a very good idea.
