The Orange County district attorney’s office charged Henry David Lee, 70, with five felony counts of sexual battery involving an unconscious person and four felony counts of sexual penetration by means of fraudulent representation of professional purpose, according to Orange County Superior Court records.
Authorities alleged he fondled and digitally penetrated the women while they were being treated at Lee’s Fountain Valley acupuncture business. The alleged incidents occurred between 2014 and 2016, authorities said.
Fountain Valley police detectives arrested Lee on Wednesday. He was booked into Orange County Jail with bail set at $250,000, according to jail records.
