Oskaloosa chiropractor trial date movedPublished: 2010-06-14 11:24:45Author: Andy Goodell | The Oskaloosa Herald | March 12, 2010OSKALOOSA — He was going to stand trial for sexual abuse next week.
Oskaloosa Chiropractor Dr. Jason
Ebelsheiser was scheduled to stand trial for seven counts of
third-degree sexual abuse this coming Tuesday. The charges stem from
accusations made by female patients ranging in age from 17 to 46 this
past summer. He was also charged with one count of tampering with
records at this time.
A pretrial
hearing is now scheduled for April 8, while Ebelsheiser’s trial will not
begin until May 11.
Stipulations
remain as to what kinds of procedures Ebelsheiser can perform.
On Oct. 13, 2009, Ebelsheiser requested a
modification to an Iowa Board of Chiropractic emergency adjudicative
order, which would allow him to perform soft tissue treatments on male
patients. The request was approved by the board that same day.
The original emergency adjudicative order
states that Ebelsheiser “poses and immediate threat the public health,
safety, or welfare.” According to the original order, Ebelsheiser was
barred from performing certain “soft tissue” treatments to all patients.
