“Who would videotape themselves going to the bathroom?” Waickowski asked the jury. Waickowski claimed this was evidence that Manchester was unaware of the camera. The first 27 videos from the camera were from Manchester’s room and showed him walking around and going into his own private bathroom. Throughout the course of the trial, Waickowski provided evidence that the bathroom could be accessed by anyone, that at least one of the alleged victims in the case had had visitors stay at the home (including their boyfriends) and argued that it could have been anyone who put the camera in the home. Waickowski urged the jury to return a not-guilty verdict because he said the Cape & Island’s District Attorney’s Office did not meet its burden to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that Manchester was the one who planted the camera in the bathroom. The three women rented rooms from Manchester.ĭuring the trial, still photos taken from the charger/camera showed that there was video taken of women going in and out of the shower naked. The charges stemmed from accusations that one of the three female alleged victims in the case discovered a camera disguised as a power adapter/charger plugged into an outlet that faces the shower in the bathroom of a home where Manchester is the landlord. Manchester was represented by attorney Rob Waickowski. 14, 2021 and the other two were from March 7, 2022. The jury, which was made up of eight island residents (four men and four women), delivered the verdict just prior to 4 p.m. Richard Manchester, the island resident who was charged in Nantucket District Court in April of 2022 with three charges of photographing sexual or intimate parts of an individual without their consent, was found not guilty on all three charges by a Nantucket jury Monday afternoon.
