A convicted peeping tom entered a plea of not guilty to charges of peeping tom (12th offense) and resisting an officer.
Glenn Edward Holiday, 51, of the 1300 block of Sheppard Street, went before 26th Judicial District Judge Jeff Thompson, who set a trial date of April 8, 2016, according to court documents.
Minden police responded to a call in reference to a prowler around 6 a.m., Wednesday, Nov. 4. The homeowner indicated someone had been outside his window and when officers went outside to that window, a hat was found on the windowsill, Police Chief Steve Cropper said.
Cropper says Holiday has been arrested roughly 20 times on charges of peeping tom and convicted of 11 counts.
He was arrested Nov. 4 for resisting an officer as well because he ran from police.
He was apprehended, and upon questioning, Holiday reportedly told police he’d left his hat at the Hardy Street residence.
After the third conviction, Cropper says the charge becomes a felony. If convicted of his 12th offense, Holiday could face a fine of no more than $1,000, imprisoned with or without hard labor for not more than one year, or both.
