STANTON, Calif. (March 15, 2017) – On Wednesday, March 15, 2017, Orange County Sheriff’s Department Special Victim’s Detail (SVD) investigators arrested Efrain Juarez, 55, of Stanton, following allegations he sexually assaulted a 42- year-old female at a local massage business.
On Thursday, Feb. 6, the victim told deputies Juarez sexually assaulted her while receiving a massage from him at Mex Massage Sobador in the 6900 block of Cerritos Avenue.
