Landlord Secretly Recorded Renters in South Bay Home: Police

Investigators say man planted hidden camera, secretly recorded tenants

A South Bay landlord is wanted for allegedly outfitting his homes with hidden cameras and spying on his tenants.

Investigators say John Zeno Moore, 38, rented rooms to women and children in his San Jose home then secretly videotaped them while they were in the bathroom.

Investigators searched Moore's house and seized computers and servers. When they were reviewing the evidence, they discovered that Moore had videotaped himself molesting a toddler. Several other young victims were identified during the investigation. Police say there may be more victims.

Officers say Moore knows he is wanted -- but so far has managed to evade police. He has connections in the East Bay, San Jose, Bakersfield and Placerville.
