Surveillance footage obtained and published by DailyMail.com shows William Mendoza, a former Obama administration official, following and taking a picture up the skirt of a woman in a DC Metro station, an act that cost him his job in 2016.

Mendoza was the executive director of the White House Initiative on American Indian and Alaska Native Education, a job that paid $140,000 per year, but resigned in November 2016 and pleaded guilty two months later to attempted voyeurism, which is a misdemeanor.

The footage, taken July 5, 2016, contains five sections compiled by the Metro Police Transit Department as a part of their investigation.

One clip shows the former Obama official, cell phone in hand, following a woman in a jean skirt across a ticket hall and onto an escalator. Another clip shows him bending down and taking a photo on the escalator.

After the woman complained to police about his behavior, Mendoza was arrested and charged. After his guilty plea, he received a 90-day prison sentence, a fine of $100, and a year of probation.

Department of Education documents show that Mendoza, who is married, tried at least four times to take pictures and videos up women’s skirts using government-issued phones, DailyMail.com reports.

Mendoza is a member of the Oglala-Sicangu Lakota tribe. During his time in the Obama administration, he was a vocal opponent of the usage of tribal mascots by sports teams.
