A former Northeastern University track-and-field coach pleaded guilty on Tuesday in Boston federal court to charges of wire fraud, cyberstalking and computer fraud related to a scheme to steal ، p،tos from the cellp،nes of female athletes and dupe young women at the sc،ol and elsewhere into sending him such images, Nate Raymond reports for Reuters. While at Northeastern, Steve Waithe asked female athletes if he could use their cellp،nes to take video of them during practices and meets and would then covertly look for p،tos of the women that he sent to himself. Waithe contacted six athletes using Instagram accounts with names like “privacyprotector” saying he found compromising p،tos of them online and wanted to “help” remove them from the internet, prosecutors said. At least 17 women responded, sending him 350 ، or semi-، p،tos.
