BLYTHEVILLE, Ark. (AP) — The trial for a former Blytheville reserve police officer accused of video voyeurism has been delayed until August.

Chris Hardy is charged with two counts of video voyeurism. Prosecutors accused him of placing a video camera in the room of his home where several teenage girls came to use a tanning bed.

The Blytheville Courier News reports that a judge this week delayed Hardy's trial until Aug. 20. A pretrial hearing was set for Aug. 2.

Police say the girls were 16 and 17. They reported finding camera under some pillows on a couch that was in the same room as the tanning bed.

Hardy has pleaded not guilty.

Another authority figure breaking the law. I have no sympathy on this jerk and he should be dealt with as a child preditor. Then again our justice system serves us no good when it comes to cases like this. He might have only had a camera and viewed video but what would the next fetish been. Makes me sick!!!!!

I doubt that the case will be thrown out. But it should only be a misdemeanor, anyway, but I suppose the guy has been charged with a felony.
