Woman Snaps Picture of Sexual Harasser, Lands Him in Custody


Cell phone cameras are a wonderful invention. Especially when they help to land a scumbag harasser into police custody.

While walking up the stairs at the Dyckman Street station, a 28 year-old woman noticed a man following her and taking pictures up her skirt with his cell phone. Suddenly, she decided "since he is taking pictures of me, I am going to take pictures of him." She followed him onto a train, where she held up her cell phone camera, and told him: "smile, because I am going to the police." She sent the picture to the police, and on Tuesday, an officer recognized the man, 36 year-old Aaron Olivieri, and arrested him. He was charged with unlawful surveillance and attempted sexual abuse and harassment. Oh, sweet justice.

So ladies, have those camera phones ready. Not only is snapping a picture of a degenerate gratifying (the main point of the famous Holla Back NYC blog), but it can also lead to one less harasser on the street.
