Former member of State Board of Dental Examiners pleads guilty to recording female employee
Former Bryan dentist Bill Birdwell was sentenced Thursday to four years of probation and 21 days in jail after pleading guilty to improper visual recording.
Birdwell, 67, was arrested in May after a female employee in his dental office reportedly found a camcorder in the bathroom when she went to in to change, according to a police report.
The camera was discovered in Birdwell’s personal “cubby,” which each employee was assigned, and was set up so that it was capturing her reflection in a large mirror, according to the report.
When questioned by police, Birdwell initially denied any wrongdoing before admitting he had set the camera up to record the employee. He told police it was his second time to film the woman, which was consistent with the number of videos that officers reported finding on the device, according to the report.
