A former postal worker pleaded guilty Friday to obstruction and video voyeurism charges after he placed hidden cameras to record his female co-workers, prosecutors said.
Nicholas Testagrossa, 43, of Rindge, N.H., pleaded guilty to two counts of video voyeurism and one count of obstruction and attempted obstruction of an official proceeding, the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of Massachusetts said in a statement. He was charged in December 2025.
In March 2025, while Testagrossa was an employee at the Westminster Post Office, he hid a camera in the women’s restroom to record his female co-workers “while they were undressed and using the bathroom,” according to prosecutors. Another employee found the camera March 28, 2025, after they noticed it concealed beneath a vent.
An investigation revealed that Testagrossa hid the camera in the restroom on several occasions and captured videos inside the women’s bathroom on multiple dates in February 2025 and March 2025, according to officials. These videos included two recordings of two victims undressed “without their knowledge or consent,” the DA’s office said.
Investigators later found videos depicting Testagrossa concealing the camera in the restroom from a “recording vantage point” and testing the device both at work and at home, according to officials. The recordings clearly showed his face and confirmed that they were part of a repeated effort to target his female co-workers, prosecutors said.
After the Westminster postmaster confiscated the hidden camera, Testagrossa took it back “without authorization” and damaged the memory card and USB ports in an attempt to destroy the evidence, officials said. However, the files had already been removed from the card and preserved, according to the DA’s office.
Testagrossa faces up to 20 years in prison, up to three years of supervised release, and a fine of up to $250,000 for the obstruction charge, the DA’s office said. He faces up to one year each of prison and supervised release and a fine of up to $100,000 for the voyeurism charge.
Testagrossa is scheduled to be sentenced May 12, 2026, according to prosecutors.
