A Murfreesboro masseur who the State of Tennessee Massage Licensure Board suspended the license of will appear in court in June. The suspect is accused of sexually assaulting two women during a massage this past December. Accused is 22-year old Yuntao Jiang.
The two women said the incident allegedly occurred at a business called Aqua Footcare and Massage in the Stones River Mall. One of the victims was a juvenile and the second was said to be 21-years of age. Jiang was charged with 2 counts of rape and 2 counts of sexual battery.
Jiang will be in Circuit Court to file a plea on June 26th before Judge Bragg in Rutherford County. He is currently free on bond. He will be represented by attorney Harold Donnelly.
More on the cases:
One of the women who filed a complaint with the Murfreesboro Police Department was a juvenile. She says that suspect, Yuntao Jiang, removed her underwear and touched her buttocks without her consent during a massage. The suspension from the state suggests that Jiang told the teenager, "relax and that this was his job."
The 21-year old victim said that she disrobed in a private room in order to prepare for the massage and that Jiang told her to take all of her clothing off and to lie down on the massage table. New to having a massage, the victim complied.
During the massage, the 21-year old victim says that the suspect sexually assaulted her (information according to a MPD incident report and state documents). The actual police report is labeled as a "rape" incident. The paperwork filed by the Tennessee Massage Licensure Board (1/25/13) documents that Jiang is also accused of exposing himself to the woman and forcing himself onto her during the massage. The state report states, "the adult client never consented to any sexual acts."
Both sexual assaults were said to have occurred on the same day and the two victims were not acquainted with each other in any way.
The 22-year old suspect was arrested at the Stones River Mall on January 5th. Murfreesboro Police reported that Jiang was located by mall security when they arrived. The culprit was in a massage kiosk at the mall.
In December of 2012, Jiang was charged with two counts of rape and has since lost his massage license by way of suspension by the Tennessee Massage Licensure Board.
