TYLER — Tyler dentist Charles Robinson, who is accused of secretly videotaping a 40-year-old woman and her 15-year-old daughter for the past 3 years, is being sued by the victims. Their lawyer says the women are suffering physical as well as mental distress.
The lawsuit says that the “Plaintiffs seek unliquidated damages…for physical pain and suffering in the past and future, emotional pain and mental anguish in the past and future, lost wages and wage earning capacity and medical expenses…necessary for the treatment of such injuries and mental scars which in all responsible probability will be incurred by and on behalf of the plaintiff’s in the future.”
Sheriff J.B. Smith says cameras were found inside the woman’s home. They say they were focused in both the bedrooms and bathrooms of the woman and her daughter, who rented from Robinson. Robinson has been charged with possession of child pornography, a third-degree felony, and improper visual recording, which is a state jail felony. His bonds total $250,000.
