NY wants man who spread HIV locked up indefinitely
Edited on Wed Apr-28-10 10:07 PM by Elmore Furth
As you can see by comparing my avatar picture with Mr Williams' that he is a very attractive man. . . .





BUFFALO, N.Y. — A sex offender who infected at least 13 women with the AIDS virus should be locked up indefinitely under a civil law meant to keep the most dangerous offenders out of communities even after they complete prison sentences, the state said Wednesday.

The attorney general's office described 33-year-old Nushawn Williams in court papers as a mentally disturbed, sex-obsessed drug user who was unruly and sometimes violent during his 12 years in prison and would likely infect more women if set free.

He pleaded guilty in 1998 to charges of statutory rape and reckless endangerment after his behavior set off a panic in the small western New York town of Jamestown, where the dreadlocked convict was known as "Face" to the young, sometimes drug-addicted women and girls he charmed for sex.

Under a 3-year-old statute, the state can lock up a sex offender indefinitely if it proves the person has a mental abnormality and is likely to offend again. Williams, whose criminal sentence ended April 13, would be held at a medium-security psychiatric facility, with his case reviewed yearly.

2. Like Kastro's Kuba.
Lotta whiners here on DU carry on about Cuba's HIV sanatorium hospitals (Cuba doesn't send those convicted of deliberate HIV transmission to jail) that treat these poor people and try to rehabilitate them.
