DALLAS, April 12, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- The Dallas-based law firm of McCathern, Shokouhi, Evans filed a petition on Wednesday in Dallas County on behalf of its clients, Kelli Luevano and Diana Elia, against St. Moritz Security Services, Inc. ("St. Moritz Security") and one of its security guards, Ronnie Smith. The petition follows the arrest of Mr. Smith, who had a long and public criminal history when he was hired by St. Moritz, for secretly videotaping several women in various private restrooms in the prominent Dallas shopping district of Highland Park Village.

  • St. Moritz currently provides private security for many other high-profile, luxury retail boutiques in Highland Park Village, including Van Cleef & Arpels and Panerai.
