A transgender woman filmed an 18-year-old girl changing into a swimsuit in a Target fitting room in Idaho Monday, while the retailer is being boycotted for its new transgender bathroom and fitting room policy.

Authorities charged the 46-year-old transgender woman, Shauna Smith, with one count of voyeurism this week, according to the affidavit of probable cause given to IdahoNews.com. She was booked with the felony under her male name, Sean Smith.

She was caught filming the 18-year-old with an iPhone she held over the top of a barrier while standing in an adjacent fitting room.

Court documents state that, "The victim's mother confronted the suspect, who immediately fled on foot. Both (the victim and victim's mother) described the suspect as a white male who was wearing a dress and a blonde wig. A witness observed the suspect get into a vehicle and leave the area."

Target Transgender Policy for Bathrooms & Fitting Rooms Since April

Back in April, the transgender community and its advocates praised Target for setting a new policy where it allows transgender customers to use the fitting rooms and bathrooms based on the gender they identify with.

The retailer also received major backlash from conservative groups for its change in policy. Just last month, the American Family Association started a petition to boycott the store stating that, "Target's policy is exactly how sexual predators get access to their victims."

More than 1.3 million people have signed the petition since its release. Those who sign the petition swear that they will shop elsewhere until Target changes its policy. 

Executive Director of the National Center for Transgender Equality Mara Keisling tells the New York Times that this incident is just a distraction from the real issues regarding the transgender community.

"This has nothing to do with whether or not I should be allowed to use the bathroom in a restaurant, whether a first grader can use the bathroom, whether a high schooler can play school sports," Keisling said. "If this person was a voyeur, they will be dealt with by the legal justice system the way they deal with voyeurs."

Meanwhile, Twitter user @TheRadioDude claims Smith is one of those people noted by AFA with ill intentions; posing as transgender in order to get access to victims.

"Here, I'll say it: Sean Patrick Smith is NOT a transgender woman. He dressed up as a woman and went into Target..." he tweeted.

Smith admitted to taking similar videos and photos of women in dressing rooms other than the initial victim. She is represented with a public defender.
