Detectives looking for additional victims of man charged with voyeurism after secretly taping women during sex

A Monroe man arrested earlier this month for allegedly taping women during sex without their consent was charged Thursday with three counts of voyeurism - and detectives believe there are more victims out there.
 
Anyone who believes they might have been a victim of 48-year-old Robert Allen Anderson should contact the Snohomish County Sheriff’s Office tip line at 425-388-3845.
 
In a search warrant served earlier this month at Anderson’s parents’ property, where he lives in a renovated barn, detectives seized hundreds of DVDs, CDs, VHS and Super 8 materials, suggesting Anderson has been secretly taping his sexual encounters for many years. Many of the recordings had women’s names on them, but others did not.
 
Detectives already have identified about seven victims, but think there are more out there.
 
Anderson, who goes by “Rob,” used to frequent or currently frequents McCabes, a nightclub and dance saloon in Everett, the Tulalip Casino in Marysville (as well as The Q Club – a nearby nightclub and casino), the Cascade in Lynnwood, and a place called The Little Red Hen – a country western bar in Seattle. He also is known to hang out in taverns and bars in Monroe and Sultan.
 
Anderson allegedly establishes dating relationships with women that the women believe are exclusive and then secretly tapes them during sexual activity. Anderson keeps the tapes and allegedly uses them for his own viewing pleasure.
 
This revelation has been traumatic for the women who have been identified so far. Detectives would like more victims to come forward so they can continue to build their case against Anderson.
 
Again, anyone who thinks they might have been a victim of Anderson or who has information about him should call the Sheriff’s Office tip line at 425-388-3845.
