North Carolina Restaurant Owner Arrested Over Hidden Camera In Women’s Restroom
People have their reasons for avoiding public restrooms. Cleanliness can be a big one. I know I for one won’t use an airplane bathroom or a port-a-jon. But one thing that was never really on my radar regarding public restrooms until recently was hidden cameras. But it seems stories of hidden cameras, particularly in women’s restrooms, seem to be common these days. And it’s happened right here in NC. A North Carolina restaurant owner has been arrested for a hidden camera authorities say he placed in the women’s restroom of his restaurant. The incident allegedly occurred at La Vita É Bella, an Italian restaurant in Mocksville, NC.
This is according to a report from Insider. After a tip was received authorities from the Davie County Sheriff’s Office and the Department of Homeland Security searched both the restaurant and the man’s home. They discovered a “concealed camera” in the women’s restroom. As a result, 47-year-old Luigi Carciati was arrested and charged with 20 counts of third-degree exploitation of a minor. Excuse my language but there is a special place in hell for people who do what Carcaiti is accused of. There recently was a story about a flight attendant putting a camera in an airplane bathroom as well. There are a lot of sick people in this world.
You can read more on this story of the North Carolina restaurant owner accused of placing a hidden camera in a women’s restroom from Insider here. I hope that if a trial and evidence show that Carciati is guilty he is prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.
This Is North Carolina's Favorite Pizza Chain
Who doesn’t love pizza? It doesn’t matter if it’s thin crust, wood-fired, NY style, or any other form of pizza it’s just delicious. Pizza is just one of the foods almost everyone likes. It’s a people pleaser, for parties, gamedays, late night doesn’t matter. The possibilities are endless from types of crust to different sauces, and toppings. It may just be the perfect food. And October is National Pizza Month. Isn’t that every month? It is for me. But to celebrate our friends at Gambling.com conducted research to determine what North Carolina’s favorite pizza chain is.
Before we get into that full disclosure I’ve become a sort of pizza snob. That typical chain delivery pizza just doesn’t hit like it used to. I prefer a wood-fired option or a giant slice of NY pizza. I’m not saying I wouldn’t eat it if it were in front of me, but I honestly don’t remember the last time I chose to get pizza from a well-known delivery chain. Even still I’m sure you have a favorite as do I. But is it the same as the rest of the state? That’s the burning question.
To create this ranking Gambling.com’s researchers looked at the nation’s five most popular chain pizza restaurants. They took two pieces of data. First was the number of locations per 100,000 residents in the state. And the second was the number of Google searches for the chains. Those were weighted and each chain was given an overall score on which they were ranked. Those are the rankings you’ll find below. Do these rankings surprise you? Or is your top choice North Carolina’s favorite pizza chain? Thanks to our friends at Gambling.com for sharing this research with us. Keep reading to see the top 5 most popular pizza chains in North Carolina.
