An Olive Branch, Miss., man who was arrested last week in Gosnell on charges of video voyeurism will now be facing similar charges in several more locations.

Sam Allen Nuckolls, a youth evangelist who was preaching in a Gosnell church and staying in the home of some church members, was discovered in the act of secretly taking digital video of his victim while she was in the bathroom. He was found to be using a secret camera with a USB port which was shaped like an oversized ink pen. When he was arrested in Gosnell, he also confessed to several other similar crimes which had allegedly been committed elsewhere.

Nuckolls now faces the same charge in Olive Branch for a similar situation which occurred in Nuckolls' home, according to Gosnell Police Chief Bobby Trump.

Yet another count of video voyeurism involving Nuckolls is being investigated in Waldren, Ark., where he was visiting a church, similar to the Gosnell situation. Charges have not yet been filed in Waldren.
