POMONA, Calif. -- A 22-year-old woman and her mother are suing Best Buy and its "Geek Squad" computer repair team for dispatching a technician who they say videotaped the daughter taking a shower.

Sarah Vasquez and her mother Natalie Fornaciari filed a Superior Court lawsuit Wednesday claiming technician Hao Kuo Chi, 26, placed his cellular telephone in Vasquez's bathroom during a service call March 4 in the family's Walnut home and recorded her showering.

The suit also claims the phone was found in the bedroom of Vasquez's 13-year-old sister, Kelly Rocha. 
 

"I couldn't believe this was happening to me," Vasquez said. "I felt embarrassed and dirty because he did this when I was naked."

Chi was arrested and later charged with misdemeanor counts of using a camera to view a person without consent and annoying or molesting a child under 18, said Sgt. Bob Skidlarski of the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department. A court hearing will be held May 3.

Best Buy officials released a statement saying the company learned of the lawsuit shortly after it was announced Wednesday.

"Obviously, we intend to cooperate fully with any investigation into this matter," the statement said.

Chi was at the family's home for a scheduled appointment, according to the lawsuit.

Vasquez claims she noticed a cell phone positioned on her bathroom sink when she exited the shower. A red light on it was blinking, she said. Vasquez went to tell her sister, but when they returned the phone was gone. Kelly later found it in her bedroom.

The sisters removed the memory chip and took it to a Verizon store to see what was on it. They alerted their stepfather, who reported Chi to police.

"I was shocked and felt angry and upset for my daughters when I learned what was on the video," Fornaciari said.

The family is seeking compensatory and punitive damages for alleged fraud, negligent misrepresentation and hiring, invasion of privacy and intentional infliction of emotional distress.

A telephone listing could not be located for Chi in Walnut or the surrounding area. The plaintiffs' attorney, Gloria Allred, said she did not know if he had a lawyer.

So, was she hot?

22 year old Latina...................... guessing most likely yep.

Either that or very fat.

You shouldn't hire them because they suck. Not because they video your daughters.

Edit: Who showers when strangers are in the house anyway?

Maybe someone was out of the loop, but needed to shower before going out?

It's the internet.

Pffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffft. Weak.

Smells fishy to me.

1) He knew she was going to take a shower, and was able to set up the camera before hand?
2) I saw a post saying their company phones don't have any lights like this on it
3) Three women in what sounds like a 1-bathroom house, and he manages to get his phone out of the bathroom and into another girls bedroom - after one girl is already suspicious - without anyone noticing?
4) All they do is take the memory card?  They don't call the police?
5) They go to a store to view the video instead of immediately trying to view it on the phone?
6) Then they had a media conference where they girls actually went on TV telling how horrible it was.

It doesn't jive to me.  It wouldn't be difficult at all to nab some workers phone and do whatever you wanted with it.  If that tape doesn't show him actually setting it up, I call bullshit.

Sounded like a set up to me as well.  Certainly it can be proved if the phone was his, yes?  Besides the obvious (fingerprints), I would think there would be some sort of paper trail (payment) associated with it. 

And what the fuck is Gloria Allred (if it's the same bitch I've always associated with that name and not by some coincidence another female lawyer by the same name) doing involved in the case?

So let's see the movie.

Filming a showering 13 yr old without her knowledge is only a misdemeanor?

Otherwise, yeah. It smells like fish. The story, I mean. Can you say "we want money"?

lern 2 red nub.

The girl in the shower was 22.

In Sky's mind, they're all 13.

I wonder if Hao was nappy headed.

I was quite surprised that there is a charge of "annoying or molesting a child under 18". Is molestation roughly equivalent to annoyance now? It's also pretty hard not to annoy freakish suburban emo kids. That's going to be a lot of paperwork.

So you're saying that you might as well molest emo girls, the charge is the same anyways?

God I hate the U.S. legal system. Distress? Yes, I'm sure your trip to verizon was a horrible one. And where the hell does the fraud charge come from? I'm sure he actually fixed their computer. They wouldn't rip you off that bad and not. Kind of like a sick joke.
