Charles Lucas Seeks Internet Access After $25,000 Bond in Church Voyeurism Case

Summary
A Friday court motion asks Lake County to let 59-year-old Charles “Bart” Lucas use the internet despite a release condition barring him from going online after his June 19 arrest.
The filing says Lucas needs access for banking, job searches and his personal Gmail account while he remains free on $25,000 bond.
Investigators say inappropriate images found on his RoMac-issued laptop came from a camera planted in the women’s restroom at Heritage Community Church, including images of young girls changing after a baptism.
The fallout has already cost Lucas his RoMac vice president role and his church overseer position, while Heritage Community Church has searched for additional cameras, offered counseling and canceled next week’s Adventure Camp.
