A WELL-KNOWN Hunter businessman accused of using hidden cameras to spy on and record six women and three children has been refused bail, despite his lawyer arguing he may be close to serving any non-parole period he would receive if convicted.
The man, aged in his 50s, who cannot be identified, appeared in Newcastle Local Court on Wednesday via audio visual link from jail while his solicitor, Chris O'Brien, made an application for him to be released on bail.
