The trial of a Regina chiropractor charged with seven counts of sexual assault begins Monday

The trial of a Regina chiropractor accused of multiple counts of sexual assault is set to begin Monday morning.

The Court of King’s Bench told CBC on Friday that Emerald Park chiropractor Ruben Adam Manz was initially charged with 10 counts of sexual assault, but three were stayed, meaning Manz now faces seven charges.

Manz was first accused of sexual assault after two female patients came forward in April 2021, when he was 45 years old, with complaints about his chiropractic treatments involving crimes they say occurred between 2012 and 2019.

A jury will be selected on the first day of the trial, which begins at 10 a.m. CST at Court of King’s Bench in Regina. The process will take all week.

None of the allegations against Manz have yet been tested in court.
