The man accused of sprinkling dried fecal matter over fresh baked goods at a Dallas grocery store was found guilty Wednesday.

Customers shopping at the Fiesta store on Ross Avenue complained about a stench while shopping in the bakery, which prompted managers to put in a security camera. What they found shocked them.

The video captured Behrouz Nahidmobarekah reaching inside a bag and sprinkling its feces content over the bakery goods.

"This is probably the most bizarre case I've ever encountered," said Taly Haffar, prosecutor.

The prosecution said they believe the defendant contaminated the food because he was angry at the way he was treated at the store

However, medical experts at the trial said it was the customers at the store that paid the biggest price from his actions.

"To cause an infection in an individual you need essentially two things," said one medical expert during the trial. "You need exposure, which would be to the fecal matter, and you would essentially need the host. That's the defense, and that is why he plead not guilty."

Proving the actions potential danger to the public was essential to the prosecutor's case.

"It's not enough that is grosses you out, and it grosses everyone of us out, but what you have to prove is that it will probably cause serious bodily injury," said Clark Birdsall, defense attorney.

Prosecutors said the defendant visited the store at least eight times. An idea that has some customers disturbed.
