'I'm not the same person': Victim of secret home filming speaks out about impact of voyeurism

A woman who was secretly filmed in her own home has said the experience has "taken over her life" and left her feeling unsafe.

Lucy Domaille, from Guernsey, has waived her anonymity as the victim of a sexual offence to speak publicly about the impact voyeurism has had on her and her family.

"I don't sleep," she said. "Every noise, every time the door opens, you just feel like someone is watching you 24/7.

"It's taken over my life completely. It's consumed my mind."

In October last year, Guernsey Police told Lucy she had been the victim of voyeurism.

A man she had known socially for about 25 years had secretly filmed her getting out of the shower at her home, through a gap in her curtains as he crouched outside her window.

For Lucy, the incident has occupied her every waking thought since.

She said: "I'm just not the same person. It's soul destroying, it's torturous."

It has also stripped her of her safety.

"When you go home, that is supposed to be the place that you feel safe, and I've lost that completely," she explained.

"I'm obsessed. I don't sleep... I have lost all of that."

Lucy was walking round a supermarket when her husband called her to tell her two plain clothes officers were at their home and asking to speak to her.

She later learned she had been a victim of Kirk Bishop, whose crimes she had first seen reported in a social media post by Guernsey Police the previous month.

She said the "emotional trauma" of it meant she was "not the same person - I don't think I ever will be".

As a mother of two young children, she said it had also changed the way she interacted with them at home.

She said: "Sometimes a child gets out of a bath and they'll run down the hallway to their bedroom with no clothes on. I don't want that now.

"They've taken away my children's innocence. I'm constantly making sure they're covered."

Forty-year-old Bishop pleaded guilty to a total of 20 charges involving 12 separate victims at Guernsey's Royal Court on 29 January and Magistrate's Courts on 9 February.

They included trespass with intent to commit a sexual offence, assault, voyeurism, burglary with intent and drug possession, and took place between 2022 and 2025.

In some cases he broke into people's homes and recorded them having sex.

Yet despite his conviction, Lucy said her experience with police and the justice system had left her questioning whether she would report a crime in the future.

She said some of the advice she was given by officers, after hearing what Bishop had done to her, was to "make sure your curtains are closed properly".

"I was really angry," she said.

She also discovered a photo of her that was found on one of Bishop's devices was actually a still image from a video, which had initially been circulated to some of the staff at the police station in an attempt to identify her.
