The Register Star is reporting a Columbia County Sheriff's deputy has been arrested and charged with taking photos of a woman and posting them on the Internet without her knowledge. On Tues., Dec. 30, New York State Police Bureau of Criminal Investigation charged Thomas G. Bagnall, 27, of Hudson, with unlawful surveillance, a felony. Bagnall was arraigned in Livingston Town Court and sent to the county jail. He has been placed on unpaid leave by the Sheriff's Office. In August, a Germantown woman learned her nude photos were posted on the Internet. The photos in question were taken without her knowledge, so she contacted the state police to report the incident. It is alleged Bagnall took the photos from outside the woman’s residence, and subsequently posted them on the Internet.
