Nobles will be sentenced on July 16th and faces a maximum penalty of 10 years in prison.
“It is a nightmare scenario for any parent that their child would be a victim of voyeurism while using a public restroom,” said District Attorney Hal Kitrell. “We appreciate the investigation on this case by the Hattiesburg Police Department and we look forward to a just sentencing on July 16th.
