Below, Jon Schaff is pondering morality in our culture (mostly within pop culture). As an addendum, I have this to add from KELO:
A transient woman faces serious charges for knowingly infecting four people with HIV.
Officials arrested 21-year-old Melissa A. Treadway Thursday in Box Elder. Police say Treadway had sex with at least four men, one multiple times, but never told them she was HIV positive.
She was arrested at a friend's house in Box Elder on six counts of intentional exposure to HIV, the disease that leads to AIDS. Authorities say the alleged incidents happened in Rapid City between April and July of this year at various locations.
Names and ages of the four victims aren't being released, but authorities did tell us that all four men are being tested for HIV.
Intentional exposure to HIV is a felony. Treadway faces a possible 90 years in prison if found guilty on all counts. She is still in jail on $50,000 bond.
Treadway is the third person in South Dakota to be charged with this crime. [The the others are Nikko Briteramos and William Kenneth Jenigen.]
According to the Pennington County State's Attorney's Office, Treadway is originally from West Virginia and has four children. She has only been in the Rapid City area for two years. They say she doesn't have a home here in South Dakota, but rather has been staying with various friends and acquaintances.
