Welcome to Arrest Stories. A twenty-year-old Alexandria bakery employee faces multiple felony and misdemeanor charges after a mother and her toddler discovered a hidden iPhone camera recording victims in an employee restroom. Here's what may have happened.
On September twentieth, what should have been an ordinary visit to Gustave Boulangerie in Alexandria turned into a shocking discovery when a mother and her three-year-old daughter found an active iPhone camera concealed inside the employee restroom vanity. The device was actively recording, capturing unsuspecting victims using the facilities.
Alexandria Police detectives immediately launched an investigation, executing a search warrant on the recovered device. What they found was deeply disturbing - recordings showing multiple adult and child victims who had been unknowingly filmed while using the restroom. According to police reports, the footage revealed that Joshua Hombrebueno had been recording himself performing sexual acts, allegedly to send to his girlfriend, while also capturing innocent victims.
Assistant Chief Tina Laguna of the Alexandria Police Department's Investigative Support Bureau stated, "This was a deeply troubling case involving serious violations of privacy. Our detectives acted swiftly to identify victims and ensure accountability. We are grateful to the community members who came forward to assist with this investigation."
The investigation revealed that Hombrebueno had strategically positioned the iPhone camera inside the female employees' bathroom vanity, where it remained undetected until that fateful September day. Detectives worked methodically to identify all victims captured in the recordings, and each victim expressed their desire to press charges against Hombrebueno.
On Wednesday, October twenty-second, approximately one month after the initial discovery, Hombrebueno voluntarily turned himself in to Alexandria Police detectives. The arrest warrant was served without incident.
Hombrebueno now faces twelve serious charges: nine misdemeanor counts of unlawful creation of an image of another and three felony counts of unlawful creation of an image of another, reflecting the severity of violations against both adult and minor victims.
All suspects presumed innocent until proven guilty in a court of law. Do not take this report as factual, always verify facts. Thanks for watching Arrest Stories.
