Secretary of State Jeffrey Bullock ordered the temporary suspension of the Delaware Certified Massage Technician license of David T. Fooks of Laurel following his arrest on burglary charges.
In making his determination, Secretary Bullock considered the criminal charges by the Delaware State Police for authorizing the temporary suspension of the professional license of David T. Fooks.
The Delaware Code Titles 23 and 24 were amended on April 15, 2014, to enable a temporary suspension pending a hearing to be issued upon the written order of the Secretary of State with the concurrence of the Board chair if the activity of the licensee presents a clear and immediate danger to the public health, safety or welfare.
The suspension of Fooks will remain in effect for a period of 60 days during which time disciplinary hearings will be held or the final disposition for this individual will take place. As the result of a hearing, the Board of Massage and Bodywork has the authority to impose disciplinary sanctions up to and including revocation of a practitioner’s license or certification.
The licensure status of Mr. Fooks has been updated on the Division of Professional Regulation’s online license verification service.
Delaware State stated that Fooks was taken into custody and transported to Troop 7 where he was processed for the charges of Burglary 1st degree, Assault 3rd degree, Two Counts of Endangering the Welfare of a Child and Criminal Mischief.
David T. Fooks was arraigned at Justice of the Peace Court 3 on $6,750.00 secured bail.
