San Jose massage therapist charged with sexual assault

A San Jose man has been formally charged with committing lewd and lascivious acts with a child following a months-long investigation by the Milpitas Police Department.

Ken Neng Yang

Officials say Ke Neng Yang, also known as Jimmy, allegedly sexually assaulted an 11-year-old girl at Happy 8 Health Center in August 2011. Yang, 44, is the owner of the North Milpitas Boulevard business, which predominantly offers massages. According to Milpitas police, the incident occurred while Yang was giving the victim a massage.

The Santa Clara County District Attorney’s Office filed a complaint against Yang for the alleged assault and he surrendered to Milpitas police earlier this month, authorities say.

Anyone with information on this incident or other similar incidents is urged to contact Milpitas police at (408) 586-2400. Those wishing to remain anonymous can call (408) 586-2500 or visit the Milpitas Police Department website.
