chiropractor is charged with rape, accused of assaulting a patient.According to online jail records, Byrd was arrested Friday morning and released from the Hendricks County Jail eight hours later. Investigators say a woman came forward to deputies in November 2022, a week after she said Byrd touched her in appropriately, inserting a finger into her vagina during a treatment at his Avon clinic, Cornerstone Chiropractic.
According to the court document, the woman said she waited a week before notifying deputies because she didn't want to humiliate Byrd and his family, but later told investigators,"she thought about this happening to someone else because she did not come forward and that it was bigger than her." Byrd's attorney told police his client denied those claims, as well, saying the woman's husband owes Byrd money for chiropractic treatments and has refused to pay him.
