Johnny Nunez, 46, was taken into custody by village police this week after the woman found the camera, Police Chief Joseph Rella said Friday.
Nunez has conducted a campaign of "persistent and ongoing harassment" of the 42-year-old victim, the chief said.
Village police arrested him this past Tuesday on charges of invasion of privacy, harassment "in a manner to cause alarm" and stalking, records show.
He remained held Friday in the Bergen County Jail.
Nunez served nearly three years in state prison for a pair of burglaries -- one in Hudson County and the other in Morris. He'd only just been released this past March, records show.
