A man convicted of making intimate visual recordings of a teenage girl has been sentenced to home detention.
Brendon Dion Terry, 41, was given the seven-month sentence after he pleaded guilty at North Shore District Court.
His wife, Sam, said she felt betrayed and wanted a divorce. "They do say some people stay together through things like this. I can't understand why."
Police said Terry, who worked at a Panmure caryard, bought a small video recorder last April. The police summary of facts said: "The defendant placed it among a floral display above the victim's bedroom window which recorded the majority of the bedroom area."
The girl discovered the device in her bedroom last November.
