VIRGINIA BEACH, Va. (WAVY) — Aloysius Albritton is in the Virginia Beach Correctional Jail, accused of recording someone in the bathroom of a Virginia Beach Crunch Fitness in late May. Search warrant paperwork describes Albritton standing on top of a toilet to look into the stall next to his, later taking out his cell phone to record the person next to him.
An employee showed police video footage of Albritton following the victim into Crunch Fitness right before this happened. Albritton is facing five charges related to filming a nude person without consent.
This is not the first time Aloysius Albritton is behind bars for something like this. In 2017, he pleaded guilty to recording himself sexually assaulting a disabled man. The Baynet in Maryland reported on his 2019 arrest for recording someone in the men’s restroom of a Walmart. 10 On Your Side covered his arrest for recording a police officer in a Wawa bathroom. In court paperwork for the most recent case — under prior criminal record, a magistrate simply wrote “a lot.”
Below is WAVY TV coverage of Albritton from 2017:
10 On Your Side got in touch with someone who was in the same jail pod as Albritton back in 2019. He asked to stay anonymous.
“When he first came into the pod, he wouldn’t talk to anybody,” he said. “He was just a loner by himself, but he would sing in the morning.”
The two started talking since he was into making music at the time.
“He said that he was accused of recording somebody and he was trying to give me excuses to why that wasn’t true. And I was just sitting there like, ‘nah bro, too many excuses.'”
The anonymous interviewee told me about Albritton spying on people in the showers and sniffing his cellmate’s towels. Within a matter of days, Albritton was moved elsewhere.
“Yeah, he was weird. He didn’t stay in there for more than two days. It was only two days,” he said. “I don’t think he’s going to stop doing stuff like this if I want to be frank.”
Court paperwork shows Albritton has worked at New Hope Church for about seven years, making $1,800 per month. They also show him as having a doctorate in Theology.
The anonymous interviewee told us Albritton would go by a fake name to inmates and seemingly lied about his past frequently.
Albritton’s next court appearance is on Oct. 14.
