Store says security cameras above fitting room not recording people changing

PORTLAND, Ore. – A woman told KATU
she felt violated after spotting enclosed surveillance cameras above a
fitting room at a local clothing store.
A manager of the store said the cameras were not pointed at the fitting room.
Corenna Khieu said she had just tried on a skirt when she looked up and saw the two cameras.
“Immediately, like, my heart just sank,” she said.
Khieu was with her 2-year-old daughter at the time.
"She's a baby,” Khieu said, “and I just thought, you know, who else is able to see this?"
The two were shopping at the Urban Kingdom clothing store on Northeast Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard Monday afternoon.
"I only looked up just because I have a spider phobia,” said Khieu, “so I was just wanting to make sure no spider was gonna get on me."
After spotting the cameras she said she tried starting a conversation with a store employee.
"It seemed like the little things that I was saying to him about something else totally different, it wasn't like it was registering very well,” she said.
Khieu said she then went home, called the Portland Police Bureau’s non-emergency line, then contacted KATU.
We then shared her story with James Lee, one of the store's managers.
"I apologize if it caused a concern,” said Lee.
He and a store employee showed us surveillance footage from the cameras going back more than a week.
In the footage, the cameras are pointed away from the dressing rooms.
None of it shows people undressing.
Lee said the cameras are locked in with screws and very hard to move around.
When asked if he’d still consider moving the cameras, Lee said, “"I could if it needs to be … Maybe we could put a plate underneath it. Let them know there is no way the camera can go down into the dressing room. Maybe that might be an idea … I want customers to have zero doubt that camera can view inside the dressing room."
A spokesman for the Portland Police Bureau said they're not investigating the case.
He said, generally, recording someone who has their clothes off without their permission is a crime.
