New Jersey hypnotist charged for sexual assault – RADIO.COM

FAIRFIELD, N.J. (1010 WINS) — A New Jersey hypnotist was arrested Wednesday for allegedly subjecting clients to illegal prostate exams.

Officials cuffed 55-year-old Robert Bruckner on charges of sexual assault, endangering the welfare of a child and practicing medicine without a license after clients alleged he performed a prostate exam or asked others to submit to an exam while they visited for hypnotherapy sessions.

According to prosecutors Bruckner, who owns Major Mindset Hypnosis Counseling advertises services for both adults and children but it’s unclear if the victims were under hypnosis at the time.

Officials ask anyone with information to call the Essex County Prosecutor’s Office Special Victims Unit at 973-753-1130.
