GRAND RAPIDS, MI -- A 34-year-old man who worked as a massage therapist has been sentenced to three months in jail for inappropriately touching a client.

Lance Dion-Tyler Martinez was sentenced Thursday, July 28, in Kent County Circuit Court on a charge of fourth-degree criminal sexual conduct.

He was working at Massage Green Spa, 3529 28th St. SE, when a woman reported that he inappropriately touched her during a Sept. 23 spa.

Martinez, of Grand Haven, said little during Thursday's sentencing.

His attorney asked for a sentence of only probation, but Judge Dennis Leiber said some punishment was necessary.

The judge added: "To be fair, your days as a massage therapist are over."

As part of the sentence, Martinez was placed on three months of probation.
