Irving detectives believe there may be additional victims in an invasive-recording case that led to the arrest of Makarious Jevonne Bates, according to police-attributed reporting by the Fort Worth Star-Telegram.
Bates was arrested on multiple counts of invasive visual recording, the Star-Telegram reported. The arrest and counts are allegations and do not establish that the charged conduct has been proven.
Detectives raise possibility of more victims
Police told the newspaper that detectives believed the case could involve additional victims. The approved information does not establish how many additional people investigators believe may be involved or identify any such person.
The possibility of more victims is also an investigative position, not confirmation that more victims have been found. Details beyond the arrest, the multiple invasive visual recording counts and detectives’ stated belief are not included in the information approved for this report.
Because the allegations concern private and potentially identifying circumstances, this article is limited to the police-attributed facts. Bates should not be described as having committed the alleged acts unless the claims are established through the legal process.
