The files were discovered when Brian D. Hindson, 40, of Carmel, Ind., sold an Apple iMac computer on eBay for $90 to Jackie McSwain, of the Smyre community in Gastonia in March 2006.

For a period of 10 years, Hindson hid video cameras in locker rooms at Kokomo High School, where he was the head coach of the swimming and diving teams, according to the Justice Department. He would secretly videotape teenage female swimmers while they undressed, according to the release.

The computer arrived St. Patrick's Day 2006 while McSwain was celebrating the holiday in Savannah, Ga. Her son, Micah, 23, took it out of the shipping box.

"I was just plugging it up to see if it worked," Micah said during a February interview with the Gazette. "He definitely didn't clear his hard drive good enough. Smart guy."
