MILWAUKIE, Ore. -- Detectives were looking for more potential sex abuse victims of a Milwaukie gym owner after his arrest on Monday.

Clackamas County deputies were called out to find an 18-year-old distraught woman who was in her car parked at an intersection in Clackamas just before 3 p.m. She had called her mother to report she was sexually assaulted at the Real Fitness gym on Jannsen Road.

The woman said about two weeks ago, she met a customer at the coffee shop where she works who invited her for a free session at the gym he owned in Clackamas.

The woman told investigators 38-year-old Bryce Darrel Jackson invited her in, and locked the door behind her. They were the only two people inside when Jackson directed her to do some exercises and photographed her, deputies said.

Detectives said the woman was stretching and getting a massage when Jackson sexually abused her. She was able to leave and call her mother, who in turn called police.

Jackson was arrested the gym for second-degree sex abuse.

Anyone with information in the case was asked to call detectives regarding case number 09-35098 at a confidential tip Line (503) 723-4949 or send a text message to CRIMES (274637 on your phone keypad) -- with the keyword CCSO as the first word in the message body.

Isn't it odd that Mr. Jackson's gym had no customers in it at 3:00 PM? Perhaps it was on a Sunday when this assault occurred.

Innocent until proven guilty. The cornerstone of our legal system, of our society. The photo, the story without a balanced input leaves a bad light for the accused and leaves an 18 year old in the classic "he said, she said" situation with an advantage. How do justify this display of injustice? What manner of chaos have you created for the family of a man that is in this situation based on the voice of one person? You have judged and put an individual in a situation to defend from a negative stance without evidence. Even a phone call added to the footage. If Mr. Jackson is shown through evidence to be guilty of such an action then he must pay the consequences, but to place someone's life, family, and future in the way you have is indefensible. Shame on you Mr. Krough, shame on KGW.
