The girl was his patient from June 2012 to February 2013 and told a teacher that her hygienist had inappropriately touched her. According to Sgt. Al Fraijo of the sheriffs Special Victims Unit, Robles would take the patient into a private room to show her how to floss properly. “[There would be] inappropriate touching of her body parts,” Fraijo said.
Robles is currently at Men’s Central Jail in Los Angeles County. He is faced with three felony counts of lewd acts upon a child and a misdemeanor count of child molesting, according to the SGV Tribune. His bail is set at $320,000.
