sentence too lenient?

Quote:

LONDON (Reuters) - A woman was jailed for 36 months on Monday for deliberately infecting a man with HIV.

Sarah Jane Porter, 42, was sentenced at Inner London Crown Court after admitting grievous bodily harm.

One of her victims, a 36-year-old man, said she did not reveal she was HIV positive and encouraged him into having unprotected sex.

In May 2005 he contacted police who tracked down some of Porter's lovers.
One of them, a man aged 31, is HIV positive.

Forensic tests, carried out during a year-long investigation by police, proved that Porter, from Kennington, was the source.

Porter, who refused to help detectives track down her victims, deliberately led these men into a potentially lethal nightmare, said Detective Sergeant Brian McClusky of Brixton police.

"Once found, we were then introducing them (her victims) to a potential nightmare," McClusky said in a statement issued after the court hearing.

"It is hard to comprehend how or why Porter set about this deliberate chain of events. She gave us no help to identify potential victims throughout the investigation."

Porter will serve half of her sentence in jail and the rest on licence

her "victim" will die of the disease at some point. and she did it intentionally. an 18 month jail term is her punishment.....

Dispicable - the charge should be manslaughter.... :evil:

Manslaughter? I'd say it was murder. 18 months is ridiculous.

Hmmmm......not all HIV infections develop into full-blown AIDS. There's no saying that anyone will die because of this.

However, to my mind, the sentence does seem lenient. Can't help thinking that there's nothing to stop her "offending" again once out on licence.

Just saw this on the news KeithD and it seems nothing, theres no word on how many people she has infected and then how many people they infected and so on. She could be the cause of so many deaths and she gets a little over a year in jail.

Stuff like this is just sick, they may not develop full blown AIDS but they will be on drugs and so on forever and never be able to have children and many other consequences, its sick.

Sounds just the kind of girl every mother wants her son to bring home!

Remove all future medication from her that is what I suggest. :evil:
