Harvey’s arrest took place on October 3 when he was reportedly caught using a phone to secretly film under a woman’s skirt at a Geneva store. A subsequent search of his phone uncovered over 400 incriminating videos, as reported by the police.
The recordings, according to Geneva authorities, span from 2017 to 2025 and were captured in diverse locations such as retail outlets, banks, and office complexes across cities including Algonquin, DeKalb, Geneva, Elgin, Naperville, South Elgin, St. Charles, and Wheaton. Additionally, public libraries in Batavia, DeKalb, Elburn, Geneva, St. Charles, North Aurora, West Chicago, Sycamore, and Wheaton, as well as government buildings in DeKalb, Elgin, and Aurora, were also involved.

After his initial court hearing on October 4, Harvey was released from custody. His next court appearance is set for December 17.
