Calgary Massage Therapist Brad McLellan Facing Three More Charges Of Sex Assault On Patients

The Canadian Press, 12 Jan, 2016 12:12 PM
    CALGARY — A Calgary massage therapist is facing more charges of sexual assault.
     
    Three women came to police after a news release Dec. 17 about a man being charged with sexual assault involving a 25-year-old woman.
     
    The women allege they were sexually assaulted during a massage appointment.
     
    The assaults are alleged to have taken place between September and December 2015 at the Centennial Wellness Clinic and Pro Active Health Group.
     
    The accused, Brad McLellan, told CTV Calgary he is completely innocent of the allegations.
     
    He is scheduled to appear in court on all four charges on Feb. 12.
     
    "I have never had a complaint of any sort against me since I started over 14,000 treatments ago," McLellan said Monday.
     
    "Every treatment I have always asked repeatedly for consent and checked in throughout my treatments to see how my patients are doing. These false allegations have caused extreme duress and I anxiously await the opportunity to prove my innocence."
