Valdivia, who also owns a tattoo studio, was taken into custody Monday, according to the Montgomery County Police Department. He is charged with two counts of second-degree rape, four counts of fourth-degree sexual offense, and four counts of second-degree assault, according to police.

Two women alleged they were raped inside DC Fine Line Tattoos at 9841 Washingtonian Boulevard, according to police.
