Masseur jailed for sexual assault of Cork woman celebrating her birthday

Judge Helen Boyle sentenced Lenon De Souza Seara, aged 35, of Granary Court, North Ring Rd, Cork, to three years in jail with the last six months suspended at Cork Circuit Criminal Court.

A masseur who sexually assaulted a woman at the end of a massage she was having for having her 40th birthday was jailed today for two and a half years.

Judge Helen Boyle noted the evidence in the case that the woman was having a massage at a reputable hotel spa when she was asked by the masseur if she would like a surprise at the end of the session. She was then sexually assaulted in a manner that caused her to jump from the table in absolute shock.
