Prosecuting HIV: take the Test- and Risk Arrest?

by Sean Strub

Imagine meeting someone online, having a nice chat, and then deciding to hook up. You have HIV, but you’re adherent to your meds and have had an undetectable viral load for years. You and your sexual partner use a condom. Sometime later, the partner learns you have HIV and presses charges against you for failing to disclose your HIV status prior to sex.

Your life is suddenly turned upside down, with your name and picture splashed across the media. You are called an “AIDS Monster.” You and your family and friends feel humiliated and embarrassed. Your employment, housing, and relationships may be put in jeopardy and you need to find tens of thousands of dollars for legal fees for the impending prosecution.

If convicted, you face decades in prison, lifetime registration as a sex offender, and other restrictions; if acquitted, your life is still never the same, because you will always be known as the “AIDS Monster.”

Think about that for a moment: Consenting adults. No intent to harm. Undetectable viral load. A condom was used. No HIV transmission. Twenty-five years in prison. This isn’t hypothetical; it is exactly what happened in a recent case in Iowa. In fact, as of July 2009 Iowa had convicted nearly 1% of all Iowans with HIV under their HIV-specific criminal statute.

There have been hundreds of prosecutions for HIV crimes in the U.S., all over the country. As of today, 36 states and territories have HIV-specific statutes, but a targeted law isn’t required to prosecute an HIV crime. These prosecutions usually have little bearing on the actual level of risk of HIV transmission, ignoring factors like whether a condom was used or the viral load of the person with HIV. more below

Only reason Strub focusing on Iowa is Nick Rhoades' residency there. Rhoades is the only defendant assisted by the AIDS activist organizations -- and they're botching the job by avoiding the scientific questions. He's probably going to prison. Meanwhile, also in Iowa, Tom Call (http://www.omsj.org/cases/2010... escaped this kangaroo court with the help of a California private investigation agency, OMSJ. See its HIV Innocence Group atwww.omsj.org/innocence-group.

Forget about "undetectable viral load" as an excuse for having sex. It's a load of hooey, and you don't need a medical license to have sex. As has been acknowledged in numerous court cases, there's no evidence that the person is even infected with a deadly virus; all they need is an expert witness to testify to that effect, not repeal of the law.

Sean Strub, Poz magazine, challenges Julio Montaner,Director of the British Columbia Centre for Excellence in HIV/AIDS, on AIDS "treatment as prevention"

POZ magazine founder Sean Strub, on Julio Montaner and so-called "treatment as prevention," XIX Intnl AIDS Conf., Washington, July 23, 2012. Strub believes in single pathogen theory, but leads against "over use" of chemo "anti-retrovirals," opposing "test-and treat" and "PrEP" or "pre-exposure prophylaxis." Montaner has fed toxic ARV's to Vancouver IV drug users for years--immune suppressive poison to people already pumping poison into their veins. Includes Montaner's weasel word response.

• We are not about mandatory anything but testing!

  asked by: exclamation3mark 
• Yes, mandatory testing to capture more "postives" and then destroy their health with immediate poisoning with highly toxic chemotherapy. Universal testing is The HIV-AIDS Industry's government's and non-profits' collusion with Gilead Sciences and the other BigPharma producers of the poison.

HIV IS NOT A CRIME, 2011 Film by Sean Strub

OMSJ exposes HIV experts as incompetent in several prominent criminal trials

OMSJ Victories Raise HUMANITARIAN Complaints

Despite 25 years of criminal prosecutions against hundreds of factually-innocent men and women, US and UN officials – along with pharmaceutically-funded gay activists – are suddenly calling for the end of all HIV-related criminal prosecutions.  Their demands coincidentally began months after OMSJ began to expose HIV experts as incompetent in several prominent criminal trials.   This report explains why.

TALL TALES

In his book Night, Elie Wiesel introduces the world to Moshe the Beadle, a clown-like waif who tells this unbelievable story:
“The train full of deportees had crossed the Hungarian frontier and on the Polish territory had been taken in charge by the Gestapo. There it had stopped. The Jews had to get out and climb into lorries. The lorries drove toward a forest. The Jews were made to get out. They were made to dig huge graves.  And when they had finished their work, the Gestapo began theirs.  Without passion, without haste, they slaughtered their prisoners. Each one had to go up to the hole and present his neck. Babies were thrown into the air and the machine gunners used them as targets.  This was in the forest of Galicia, near Kolomaye. How had Moshe the Beadle escaped? Miraculously.  He was wounded in the leg andtaken for dead.”
