Joel Gingery, a Brazilian jiu-jitsu instructor and elite competitor, was arrested Monday by the Ormond Beach Police in Florida for false imprisonment and sexual battery against one of his students. Gingery, who works as a male nurse at the Halifax Health Medical Center in Daytona Beach, reportedly called the 18-year-old female student and asked her to come to the hospital to see him where he then sexually assaulted her according to a statement the woman gave to authorities.
