Man Arrested For Molesting Elderly Patients at Santa Monica Old Age Homes

The Los Angeles County District Attorney's Office says it has filed charges on Juan Victor Mendoza, a 55-year-old male, for his involvement in multiple sexual assaults against elderly patients at care facilities. These assaults occurred between 2012 and 2018, writes SMPD PIO Lt. Joseph Cortez.

“In 2019, Mendoza was arrested for one sexual assault allegation on an elderly victim in Santa Monica but was shortly out on bail.

“While awaiting court proceedings, SMPD Detectives received additional information regarding three other elderly victims who had all claimed Mendoza had conducted similar sexual acts with them.

On September 9, 2020, SMPD Detectives re-arrested Mendoza for the additional allegations. The Los Angeles County District Attorney's Office has filed four felony counts against Mendoza,” writes Cortez.
