Rosen faces up to 11 years in prison and $11,000 in fines when he’s sentenced in October.
“All of these were done late at night, allowing the defendant to hide in the shadows”, Suttenberg said.
“Talk about a fall from grace”, Grimm said outside the courthouse.
Rosen’s arrest stems from a February case investigated by the Fairfax County Police Department, DC police said. After Rosen’s arrest in Virginia, a search of his cellphone revealed multiple videos of women that were recorded without their consent. In many of these stalking cases he went back repeatedly to the same victims.
Over a three year period, he recorded at least 20 victims, mostly women, in northwest Washington D.C., by recording through windows, cracked blinds and metal gates into the bathrooms and bedrooms of basement level apartments.
In one case, Daniel Rosen taped a woman for 27 minutes as she undressed, capturing video of her topless.
He recorded another as she relaxed in her bathtub with a book. Rosen shot others as they brushed their teeth, groomed themselves and walked through a kitchen.
Rosen’s wife sat in the courtroom as all 11 counts were read aloud.
Daniel Rosen, 45, of Washington, pleaded guilty in the Superior Court of the District of Columbia to six counts of voyeurism and five counts of stalking, the U.S. Attorney’s Office said in a statement.
Grimm said that Rosen was in counseling for his behavior and that he entered the guilty pleas “to get a grip on his life”. He was arrested in March.
“This is an extremely tough situation and I am sorry it has affected any of you”, wrote Lynn McConaughey.
Daniel Rosen admitted to using his iPhone to secretly record women in various states of undress in their homes while he was out walking his dog at night.
The State Department refused to comment, citing privacy concerns.
His attorney Bernard Grimm says Rosen is undergoing therapy and showed police the locations after they discovered the videos.
He is still facing an outstanding charge of soliciting a juvenile in connection with the Fairfax case.

According to prosecutors, in February Rosen tried to arrange a sexual meeting with an undercover officer who was posing as a 14-year old girl online.
