DO YOU LIKE IT WHEN I TOUCH YOU THERE?

Perv acupunctur­ist denies sex attack

- By BRAD CHADWICK news@sundayspor­t.co.uk

AN ACUPUNCTUR­IST forcibly performed oral sex on a 16-year-old girl, then told her to fake an illness “so he could give her more orgasms”, police say.

Matthew Johnson, 48, is accused of sexually assaulting the teen after several sessions of treating her for an unspecifie­d injury at the One Yoga and Fitness centre in Clermont, Florida.

During one session on October 30 last year, the girl got undressed and lay down, before Johnson began telling her about how her eyes reminded him of his ex-girlfriend, it is alleged.

He is then said to have rubbed her legs, before moving his hand up to the girl’s vagina, and asking: “Do you like it when I touch you there?”

According to the police, the encounter left the youngster “in shock and terrified”.

Johnson reportedly continued to fondle the girl for 15 minutes.

She also told how he then, “…Flipped me over and grabbed my legs and pulled me towards him. He put his mouth on me.”

As she left, Johnson is said to have suggested another meeting, telling the girl that “she should inform her parents that she needed to see him for more appointmen­ts so he could give her orgasms and stated he looked forward to seeing her”.

But she drove home and told her parents about the alleged attack, with police called out to the family’s home soon afterwards.

One officer had her call Johnson while he listened in, with the acupunctur­ist reportedly telling the teen he had only performed “medical treatment” when asked about his behaviour.

He denied two fresh counts of battery on November 2 last year, and was suspended from his job at the end of last month, while he awaits trial.
