LONDON MASSEUSE JAY STEEL JAILED FOR SEXUALLY ASSAULTING WOMEN
A “perverted” masseuse who sexually assaulted two women during massage therapy in London has been jailed.Jay Steel, 60, was sentenced to 18 months after being found guilty of five counts of sexual assault.
He advertised his services online, offering deep tissue massages, and committed assaults during separate sessions on February 27, 2017 and April 2019.
The first woman reported the attack, leading to his arrest on March 1, but he denied the allegations and was released under investigation.
The second incident occurred in Dollis Hill in March 2019, with Steel again denying any offences, claiming to have only provided professional massage services as advertised.
Detective Constable Victoria Gaunt said: “Jay Steel is a sexual predator who used the guise of a masseuse to assault women, who had placed their trust in him, for his own perverted gratification.
The women Steel abused have shown great strength and courage to report their ordeal to police – I hope his conviction brings them some sense of justice.
It is highly likely he carried out other attacks while masquerading as a masseuse.
I would ask any women who believe they have been victims of Steel to come forward and speak to police.
I hope his conviction demonstrates the Met’s commitment to investigating sexual offenders and ensuring they are held to account for their actions.”
