The 1019 Report
Nearly three weeks after his arrest, the Sûreté du Québec is urging potential victims of a Vaudreuil-Dorion massage therapist to come forward as police continue to build their case against him.
Jose Antonio Pedraza, 54, was arrested April 2. He faces sexual assault charges based on events the SQ is alleging occurred while he worked as a massage therapist. He remains in custody as police continue their investigation.
While several victims have been identified and connected to a number of alleged incidents that occurred last February, investigators believe there may be other victims. Police also said Pedraza also used the alias Joseph Pedraza.
The SQ is releasing few details about the case, including if Pedraza operated out of a private clinic, a local spa or at the alleged victims’ homes.
The SQ is asking potential victims to call their confidential hotline at 1-800-659-4264.
