According to the official report, the teenage girl explained that she had grown suspicious that Dingus had been entering her room without her permission. Seeking proof, she bought a small video camera and set it up in her bedroom.

Allegedly, on the morning of January 13, she left for school around 7 a.m. She said that about 15 minutes later, she received a motion alert from her camera. Upon reviewing the footage, she saw Dingus enter her room and smell her underwear.

The next day, she received another alert at 7:17 a.m., and the video again showed Dingus entering her room, smelling her worn underwear, and touching his groin area over his clothes. This evidence was handed over to law enforcement.
