Jamaican man jailed for knowingly infecting woman with HIV.
TL;DR Summary
A Jamaican man, Jermaine Scott, has been sentenced to three years in prison by a UK court for knowingly infecting a woman with HIV. Scott was diagnosed with HIV in 2005 and had been prescribed medication to minimise the risk of transmission to others. He failed to inform the victim of his diagnosis and went on to have unprotected sex with her. The victim subsequently tested positive for HIV, and the pair ended their relationship. Scott was deported from the UK to Jamaica in 2011 but was extradited back to the UK in 2022 to be charged in connection with the incident.
