Investigation Underway: Massage Therapist in Northeast Kansas Faces Allegations of Sexual Assault

A massage therapist in northeast Kansas and the Kansas City area is currently under investigation following a report of sexual assault by a client. The therapist, identified as 44-year-old Aaron Borger from Hartford, Kansas, was arrested by the Baldwin City Police Department on suspicion of two counts of rape and one count of aggravated sexual battery. The incident was reported to have occurred at Om Grown Yoga in Baldwin City, where Borger worked part-time as a massage therapist. Additionally, he provided services at a chiropractor's office in Grandview, although no incidents have been reported there yet. While formal charges have not been filed, an affidavit has been submitted to the Douglas County District Attorney’s Office for review to determine if charges are warranted.

Authorities are urging anyone who may have experienced inappropriate contact with Borger to come forward. The business where the alleged incident took place has fully cooperated with the investigation. If you have any information or concerns, you can contact the Baldwin City Police Department at 785-594-3850 or email the detective handling the case at [email protected].
