I would guess that this wife had experienced some previous issues with him doing things. This is a very telling tidbit from the affidavit:
"Murdock’s wife also tried to get the victim not to call police, according to an affidavit."

He got caught quickly. And, this woman is smart and quick thinking. The woman who was filmed said (from the same article):

“Unfortunately, I felt disgusted with myself. I felt like what did I do wrong, what if I wouldn’t have done this, or wouldn’t have worn this,” Alcala said. “I did feel violated, I felt gross, why is this happening to me?”

Alcala said she also told someone sitting in the waiting area to call 911.

“I was kind of cornering him, kind of grabbing his arms, and I did watch him delete photos of me on his phone. Thankfully I was able to slap it out of his hand and take it and run out."

If he was willing to do this in public, in the presence of his wife no less, what else has he done? Has he had access to young ladies at the church? Seems like the two of them have an understanding in this game they’re playing. The fact that she attempts to prevent the 911 call leaves a sick feeling in my stomach.

What in the world tells you that it's okay to take pictures of people on a dressing room (or anywhere, for that matter) without their consent? And take all of that and add the fact that he was with his wife? I mean, WHAT?
