Hidden camera laws in Colorado
The actual statute, in plain English — not a paraphrase of a paraphrase.
The statute
C.R.S. § 18-3-405.6 (Invasion of Privacy for Sexual Gratification)
What it prohibits
Knowingly observing or photographing another person’s intimate parts without consent, where they have a reasonable expectation of privacy, for the observer’s own sexual gratification.
Penalty
Class 1 misdemeanor, treated as an “extraordinary risk crime” under Colorado sentencing; becomes a class 6 felony if the offender has a prior sexual-conduct conviction or the victim is under 15.
