A massage therapist has been arrested on charges of raping a customer inside a studio at Boston’s Logan Airport Sunday night.
Darnell E Williams, 29, of Boston was arraigned Thursday in East Boston District Court on a single charge of rape.
On Sunday, a 25-year-old woman from out of state went to the Be Relax studio for a massage while she waited to board her flight home, according to a police statement.
Williams allegedly led the woman to a back corner room, and about halfway into the massage, raped her as she laid on her stomach, according to police.
He allegedly continued to touch her inappropriately after she asked him to stop.
The woman left the studio and got sick in the airport and throughout the length of her flight.
She told family members about it when she arrived home, and they contacted Massachusetts state police.
Investigators said Williams was the only Be Relax employee working when the alleged rape took place who matched the description given to them.
Williams was being held Thursday, and it was not clear if he had an attorney who could comment on the case.
The Be Relax studio issued a statement saying it is cooperating with authorities.
Studio officials say Williams has worked at the company for more than five years and has never had a disciplinary issue.
A spokeswoman for Massachusetts Port Authority said in a statement that Williams’s access badge has been permanently removed, according to the Boston Globe.
