On September 12, 2010, Los Angeles Police Department North Hollywood
Area detectives arrested 42-year-old Edwin Ernesto Cabrera, a resident
of North Hollywood, for sexual battery charges. Detectives are asking
for others who may have been similarly victimized by the suspect to come
forward.
Cabrera has been charged with assaulting eleven elderly female residents of the San Fernando Valley area between September 2009 and August 2010. Cabrera approached victims in a public place and feigned a prior acquaintance with them. Cabrera then offered them assistance in the form of massages and proceeded to touch them in a sexually inappropriate manner. At times, Cabrera offered services as a handyman. Once he was in the victim’s residence, he requested to shower and exposed himself. Cabrera also often kissed his victims on the face or neck area.

described as a male Hispanic with black hair and brown eyes. He stands
about 5 feet 5 inches tall and weighs about 180 pounds.
