MOORESEVILLE, N.C. — The Iredell County Sheriff’s Office says Krantz allegedly placed the smoke detectors with cameras in the bathrooms of the home.

Krantz’s wife tells WCCB the two were going through a separation and she suspected her husband may be spying on her when she went through their Amazon account. It was there she found smoke alarms with a hidden camera attached had been purchased. As soon as she saw the activity on the account, she says she alerted authorities.

Krantz’s wife said she has called dozens of family members and friends who may have been recorded. She worries about what her husband did with the video.
