A 52-year-old massage therapist is scheduled to be arraigned Monday on charges of sexually assaulting three lady customers dating back to 2000.
And Brea Police suspect there are additional victims of Fullerton's Michael James Jackson, who was arrested Thursday and is being held in the Central Jail in Santa Ana on $1 million bail.

A 38-year-old woman called police in October 2012 alleging Jackson, who operated On the Spot Therapy, inappropriately touched her during a massage in her Brea home, according to Brea Police Lt. Darrin Devereux.
A 31-year-old woman in Huntington Beach and a 48-year-old woman from Newport Beach later came forward with similar allegations, Devereux told City News Service.
The Surf City woman's case dates back to 2000, and Brea investigators believe other women who were victimized may have been too embarrassed to come forward. They are now being encouraged to contact Detective Debbie Stark at 714.990.7638.
Meanwhile, Devereux said a search of Jackson's home last December uncovered images of child porn on a computer.
Jackson is charged with three counts of sexual penetration by means of fraudulent representation of professional purpose, and one count each of rape, sexual penetration by foreign object and force, sexual penetration of an unconscious victim, and possession or control of child pornography.
