For four years, beginning when she was just 13 years old, Madison Reed lived her life in front of cameras - only she did know about because her neighbor had secretly planted recording devices in her room.
The Beaverton, Oregon, girl, who is now 18 years old, only found out about the outrageous violation of her privacy six months ago when he mother discovered a tiny camera stashed under a heap of papers in her bedroom.
On Tuesday, 48-year-old-old Bradley McCollum, a one-time friend of the Reed family, pleaded guilty in Washington County circuit court to charges of burglary and invasion of personal privacy - both misdemeanors.

A police investigation has revealed that in 2010, Bradley McCollum, a close friend and neighbor of the Reeds, planted a camera at his beach house to spy on Madison whenever the family visited him.
Last July, McCollum slipped a second recording device into Madison's bedroom, taping hours of footage showing the teenage girl naked and in various state of undress.
About two weeks later, Madison's father, Clark Reed, became alarmed when he spotted his friend near his daughter's room, and a short time later his wife came upon a camera smaller than a smartphone hidden under some papers on a dresser.
I'm not sure how taping a 13 year old naked is not considered child porn , and a sex crime ?
