According to the report, the victim began renting a room from Raber and his wife in April for $350 a month at their home in the 6000 block of Northwest 68th Terrace. The bedroom door had a lock but it could only be locked from the inside.
Last month, the woman used Raber's computer to access the Internet but started looking through files, the report said.
"[The victim] stated that when she left Mr. Raber's computer she got this feeling (possibly curiosity) that there was something about her on Mr. Raber's computer," the report said.

The woman found one file named "Porn" that had numerous adult videos and pictures, and when she clicked on one, it showed Raber in her bedroom placing a camera, the report said.
She kept watching and saw herself naked in her bedroom, the report said. Three others videos also showed her naked in the room at different times, the report said.
The woman copied the videos, along with two videos of what she believed to be child pornography, onto a USB and reported the incident to the BSO, the report said.
Investigators found the four videos of the victim, as well as a child pornography video file on the USB, the report said.
When a search warrant was served at Raber's home on Saturday, deputies found more child pornography images on his computer, the report said.
Raber admitted to downloading the child pornography and to recording the woman in her bedroom using a small camera, the report said.
"She was always careful and checked air conditioners to make sure there was no camera. She was always careful of that, that they would not be doing her harm," the victim's mother said.
