The Doraville Police Department recently conducted a search at Kim’s Acupuncture, also known as Kim’s Oriental Medicine Clinic, following accusations of multiple sexual assaults by the business owner. According to FOX 5 Atlanta, Dr. Meu Kim, a 70-year-old acupuncturist, was arrested in connection with these allegations. The police are actively seeking more information.
Doraville authorities, who began investigating after the first complaint in April and a subsequent report in December, believe more victims may come forward, as detailed by FOX 5 Atlanta. Assistant Chief of Doraville Police B.C. Harris noted that the two separate individuals reporting similar stories months apart suggests more potential victims. Kim, who has practiced acupuncture at the Buford Highway location for over 15 years, has raised concerns among local business associates.
