Hanover Police arrested Kimberly Akers, a student at the Amos Tuck School of Business Administration, yesterday afternoon for allegedly placing two voice-activated tape recorders on a telephone in a Hanover apartment without the owner's consent.
Akers is charged with two counts of interception of oral and wire communications.
Both charges are Class B felonies.
Akers declined to comment on her arrest.
According to a press release, Hanover Police investigated the apartment after the victim located one of the recording devices.
Akers was released on $1,000 bail and her court date was set for April 12.
Possible penalties for a Class B felony include jail time of one to seven years and any other sentence a judge deems appropriate. There is no limit to the fine a judge can levy.
The arresting officers, Rick Paulsen and Jeff Fleury, also could not be reached for comment.
