Man took revenge by urinating into female colleagues water bottles

A 64 year old man, Engineer James Tainsh took revenge on female colleagues by urinating into their water bottles. He was caught by a hidden CCTV camera and charged to court.

The Judge branded Engineer James Tainsh  disgusting after he admitted urinating into female colleagues's water bottles.

Engineer James Tainsh  was caught on CCTV getting empty water bottles and used cups out of a bin, urinating in them, and putting them back on female workers' desks at a hire company.

Two women told the court that items on their desks were being interfered with after they went home in the evening and bottles of water they had left to use again the next day were smelling funny.

The complaint had been up regularly, this forced the manager of the company to setup a temporary, hidden CCTV system in the office on October 17.

When the manager checked the recorded footage the next day, Engineer James Tainsh who had been working late, was seen unzipping his trousers and urinating into the bottles he had retrieved from the bin and putting them on the women's desks after he had finished with them.

 He did the same with partially full water bottles that were sitting on top of their desks, and at one point he could been seen on CCTV taking an empty chewing gum container out of a bin, performing a sex act with it and putting it on one of the women's desks.

Prosecutor Samanatha Brown said: "The inference was that the women may well have drunk out of bottles affected. The court heard one of the two women had suffered sickness and stomach trouble after Engineer James Tainsh  was caught.

Engineer James Tainsh  was arrested and spent two days in custody before pleading guilty to disgusting act.

Sheriff Livingston told Tainsh: "I am very tempted to impose a custodial sentence, your behavior was absolutely disgusting." He was ordered to pay £1500 compensation to each of the two women and carry out 200 hours of unpaid work. He was also placed on the sex offenders register and under supervision for 3 years.
