New allegations​

According to a criminal complaint, a massage therapist told police that she made an appointment with a man on Sept. 23 at a business in the 3400 block of Douglas Avenue.


About 10 minutes into the massage, the man reportedly began choking her.


According to the complaint, the woman told police that the man demanded that she remove her clothes and that he raped her.


After the alleged assault, the man reportedly demanded his money back and left, the complaint said.


Police connected White to the incident because the phone number reportedly used to make the appointment matched their records.

February case​

According to previous reporting, White is similarly accused of sexually assaulting and attempting to rape a message therapist who was working alone at a North Main Street business on Jan. 30.


Police reportedly identified White via surveillance video and state Department of Transportation records.
