Tomas Jimenez, 60, of Dinuba, faces multiple charges for allegedly committing sex crimes against four female victims, Tulare County District Attorney Tim Ward said Thursday.

Jimenez has been charged with six felony counts and three misdemeanor counts related to sexual assault and battery, stemming from assaults alleged to have occurred in his Dinuba residence beginning in 2021 during massage sessions.

Authorities suspect Jimenez primarily operated within the Spanish-speaking community.

Formal charges were filed on June 25, 2024, following an investigation by the Dinuba Police Department. Jimenez was taken into custody on July 2 and pleaded not guilty at his arraignment the next day. He is being held without bail.

A preliminary hearing is scheduled for Wednesday, July 17, at the Tulare County Superior Court.
