NEW PALESTINE, Ind. — A retiree and board member of a neighborhood HOA is accused of defecating not once, but twice on the side of a neighbor's house and was denying the act until confronted with video evidence.
Court documents reveal how a homeowner in New Palestine went out to mow his lawn on May 29 only to find a pile of human feces beside his air conditioning unit.
This wasn't the first time the homeowner found human poop piled beside his home, and it wasn't the first time he caught the culprit on camera, either.
According to court documents, the homeowner caught an unknown woman on video surveillance entering his lawn on May 2. That same day, he found she left a "gift" piled alongside his house.
After the second pooping was perpetrated on May 29, the homeowner contacted police and handed over surveillance footage that captured the serial pooper in the act. In footage shared to FOX59/CBS4, a woman is clearly seen dropping her pants in broad daylight and squatting beside an air conditioning unit to empty her bowels.
Deputies ended up pegging the serial pooper as a retiree who not only lived in the area but was a sitting board member on the neighborhood HOA.
Documents reveal how when confronted, the 74-year-old woman denied defecating against the man's house. Once confronted with the video evidence, she allegedly changed her tune and fessed up to doing the deed.
According to the court documents, the woman told deputies she had no vendetta against the homeowner and simply had to use the restroom.
The homeowner told FOX59/CBS4 that he does have an ongoing issue with the neighborhood HOA, though court documents show that he admitted to deputies that he did not know any members of the HOA personally and wasn't aware she was an HOA member at the time of the incident.
The woman has since reportedly stepped down from the neighborhood HOA.
Court records reveal that she is charged with criminal trespass, criminal mischief and public nudity, all misdemeanor crimes.
