A former choreographer for So You Think You Can Dance has been arrested for rape.  Alex Da Silva is no stranger to assault on women.

Da Silva was arrested at his home in North Hollywood this morning (August 18th) and charged with eight felony counts of assault that the D.A. filed against him.

That includes four counts of forcible rape, two counts of assault with intent to commit rape and two counts of sexual penetration by a foreign object.

The D.A. says the alleged assaults occurred between August 2002 and March 2009. The four alleged victims were between the ages of 20 and 26 and were all dancers or aspiring dancers who say they met Alex through his dance instruction classes.

Da Silva was arrested in April for sexual assault too, but the prosecutors didn’t have enough evidence to nail him just yet.

Alex Da SIlva is being held on $6.2 million bail which I am hoping is more than anyone he knows could ever give him.
