A southern Utah chiropractor was arrested Thursday after four patients reported he had sexually assaulted them during treatments.
Brent Noorda, 39, is charged with 20 counts of forcible sexual abuse, all second-degree felonies that carry a potential of up to 15 years behind bars if he is convicted.
Charging documents state that police began investigating Noorda in late July after several women told state licensing officials that they had been touched inappropriately during treatments at Balanced Healthcare.
One of the alleged victims was also an employee, according to charges. She reported to police that Noorda massaged her breasts on several occasions during adjustments, and he often put his hand down her skirt when they were going over paperwork together.
