An ex-photographer from Lincolnshire has admitted to five offences of voyeurism at Cambridge Crown Court.

48-year-old David Glover, of Edelweiss View, Tallington, Lincolnshire, had initially denied the charges, but changed his plea today (23 December) to guilty.

The offences involve him installing camera equipment to watch women in private for sexual gratification.

He now faces the prospect of jail time after admitting the five counts of voyeurism involving 35 victims over the course of a six year period, between March 2011 and March 2017.

The hearing today happened ahead of a scheduled trial in the New Year.

Four counts concern individuals, while the fifth charge has 31 names of female victims attached to it.

It was previously claimed with the fifth count that this was in relation to "103 unidentified adult females".

Thomas Brown, prosecuting, did not open details about the case.

Mohammed Latif, mitigating, said Glover was of previous good character, and said: "He's living alone. He cares for his mother; she's had heart surgery.

"He's no longer working as a photographer, as you could understand.

"He does odd labouring work."

Judge Jonathan Seely bailed Glover until February 3 for sentencing.

He asked for a report on the defendant to be prepared and warned Mr Glover, in court today, that: "All options remain open."
