ST. LOUIS COUNTY, Mo. – A massage therapist accused of sexually abusing two clients is now behind bars.

According to the Shrewsbury Police Department’s probable cause statement, the incidents happened on Sept. 29 and Oct. 5 in 2024 at the MassageLuXe on Watson Road in Shrewsbury.

The St. Louis County Prosecuting Attorney’s office said Caleb Holmes, 31, was arrested and charged with sodomy and sexual abuse.

Prosecutors believe there could be more victims out there.

“These victims were getting massages in very vulnerable positions in a dark room; (the) door closed (and) partially clothed,” said Prosecuting Attorney Melissa Price Smith. “In the current case against Holmes, two victims came forward—two brave victims.”

Prosecutors ask for others who may be victims to contact the police.

“I think the hesitation is never or not if it happened; unfortunately, there is a lot of shame with victims of this type of crime, and we want victims to know that they have a voice and their voice matters,” Price Smith said.

FOX 2 was told that Holmes was fired after the allegations surfaced and reached out to the franchise, requesting a comment and is awaiting a response.
