A Millersville man is headed to trial for an alleged series of inappropriate contacts with a teenage girl that were caught on hidden camera.
Leon Charles Tadych's alleged crimes were discovered when police installed a video camera in Tadych's home in November, according to court documents.
The 14-year-old victim also disclosed to police other sex acts not on the video recordings, according to the documents.
Police installed the camera after Tadych's wife said she was suspicious of her husband's late-night behavior, the documents show.
On Friday, a local magistrate ordered Tadych, 48, be tried on numerous felony counts of sexual assault and corruption of minors.
The victim testified about the assaults, along with a police sergeant who installed the camera and viewed the recordings that showed inappropriate touching.
Ultimately, District Judge Joshua Keller ruled that enough evidence was presented to move the charges to Lancaster County court. Tadych likely will be tried later this year.
Keller also set a series of conditions, including an order that bars Tadych from discussing his case with his family. Assistant District Attorney James Reeder argued those relatives could be trial witnesses.
Tadych, locked up on $375,000 bail, also was ordered not to have contact with the victim.
The crimes allegedly happened over a two-week period at a home in the 100 block of North Duke Street.
The wife and a friend of the victim told police that Tadych was "in love" with the girl, an arrest affidavit shows.
Tadych, if convicted, faces maximum prison penalties that would span his life.
