Sex Offender Who Allegedly Filmed Child in Walmart Bathroom Indicted

A sex offender from Woodlynne accused of filming a child inside the bathroom of a Gloucester County Walmart was indicted by a grand jury. 

The grand jury, sitting in Woodbury, handed up indictments last week against Jason M. Kammerer charging him with filming without consent intimate parts and observing without consent intimate parts. An indictment is a formal charge. 

The incident happened on Aug. 12, 2012, at Walmart in Turnersville. 

A customer told police he was in the store restroom with his two children when he saw a man in an adjacent stall trying to film one of the children with a cell phone. 

The man left the store after the child's father confronted him, but authorities said they later identified him as Kammerer through surveillance video from the store. 

Kammerer, 36, was arrested in October 2012 and held in the Gloucester County jail. 

He has two prior convictions for endangering the welfare of a child, and served about two years in state prison on those charges. 

He faces three to five years in state prison if convicted of the current charges against him.
