Towson University coach charged for locker room incident
By Darlene Powers Nov 25, 2015The grand jury indictment stems from the discovery of a smartphone by members of Towson's swimming and diving team on 16 October in the Burdick Pool women's locker room, which is not open to the public.
According to the university, she faces charges of interception of communication, a "peeping tom" violation and altering physical evidence. It isn't clear whether she has an attorney.
Facing a possible boycott by the swim team, the school also withdrew from a meet at the University of Pittsburgh which was scheduled for November 20-22 so that the swimmers could "refocus, recover, and regroup and to prepare to restart the competition schedule in January".
Towson University diving coach Maureen Mead has been brought up on felony charges after a smartphone was found secretly filming athletes in the women's locker room.
The charges are all dated October 16th, after which time Maureen Mead was put on an administrative leave.

Mead's husband, Patrick - the swim team coach - has also been placed on leave, reports CBS Baltimore. "The well-being of our student-athletes remains and will continue to be our top priority".
The same parent tells us Mead, who has been the University's diving coach for 17 years, called the students in individually and said she would do nothing to harm them.
Towson University officials announced changes to its swimming and diving team coaching staff and named Jake Shrum as acting swimming head coach and Tim Perkins as temporary diving coach.
The university has released little information about the incident. The university has declined to make specific comment on the allegations since they were revealed by the Baltimore Sun last month.
