DCR Ranger Charged with Secretly Filming Women Inside Bathroom at Houghton’s Pond Bathhouse

MILTON, MA — A Department of Conservation and Recreation park ranger was arrested Saturday after allegedly using a pen camera to videotape women in an employee bathroom at the Houghton’s Pond Bathhouse in Milton, state police said.

Raymond McKinnon, 30, of Hyde Park, faces multiple charges including secretly electronically videotaping, photographing, or surveilling a person in a state of partial nudity, and possession of and placing a device to violate wiretap laws.

On July 30, state police troopers began investigating the possibility of illegal videotaping after another employee noticed a pen with a flashing green light. Police say the pen was in the bathroom, positioned in the area of stacked milk crates containing supplies.

A DCR employee turned the pen over the state police, who reviewed the images on the pen. Following interviews and an investigation, McKinnon was identified as the man who state police believe placed the pen in the bathroom.

McKinnon was arrested Saturday afternoon at his Hyde Park home. He was arraigned Monday morning in the Quincy District Court and is free on $5,000 bail. McKinnon's next court date is Oct. 27.

Police believe the crime was an isolated incident.
