Good afternoon, Chicago.

A Buffalo Grove man who faces criminal charges for allegedly filming minors in the restroom of his Addison ice cream shop has also been accused of using another hidden camera in his home bathroom to secretly record a naked teenage girl, part of a pattern of sexually exploitive acts involving minors, according to a lawsuit filed in Cook County Circuit Court yesterday.

Steven Weisberg, 58, used a variety of predatory tactics to “scheme to manipulate and groom minor girls for sexual exploitation” through his ice cream business, Flavor Frenzy, according to the lawsuit. The complaint was filed by a 19-year-old woman identified as Jane Doe, who was a minor when she worked at the shop. The lawsuit against Weisberg and the business seeks damages of more than $50,000 for invasion of privacy, intentional infliction of emotional distress and violation of the Illinois Gender-Motivated Violence Protection Act.
