A former massage therapist at Message Envy on Mount Bethel Road has been indicted on a charge of second-degree sexual assault by a Somerset County grand jury.

Raude Guerrier, 34, of Orange, was indicted on Thursday in connection with the May 30 incident.

Court papers say that police were called to the business after a customer reported that she had been inappropriately touched during a full-body massage.

Guerrier allegedly touched her genitials.

He reportedly told police that he had “misread” the customer’s body language.
