Philippe Padieu knowingly infects at least 10 women with HIV- Now in prison
This is a very disturbing story.. These women trusted this man and each thought they were in a monogamous relationship with him. After being diagnosed they joined forces and took down this man.
He infected over 10 women that they know of, slept with many more unprotected, and is now serving 45 years in prison... Should be more. What a disgusting man.
From the story:
In 2007, three women from Frisco, Texas, took matters into their own hands when they discovered that their boyfriend, Philippe Padieu, 54, had lied to them about his relationships with at least a dozen other women -- and, they say, never disclosed the fact that he had tested positively for HIV in September 2005. They say he continued to have unprotected sex with them and other women.
For months, they conducted their own investigation, going to great lengths to prevent more women from being infected. At least 11 of Padieu's former girlfriends say they have tested positive for HIV.
In May 2009, Padieu was convicted in a Texas court of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon for infecting the women. He was later sentenced to 45 years in prison.

Horrible horrible scary story! Watched it on Oprah.. gave me the chills.
Re: Philippe Padieu knowingly infects at least 10 women with HIV- Now in prison
Yes me too. Just saw it on the show as well. Very sad. Apparently this happens very often. Disgusting.
Re: Philippe Padieu knowingly infects at least 10 women with HIV- Now in prison
exactly the reason why you BOTH get tested before having sex in a new relationship and SEE each other's results. and condoms.. use them! geesh. scary.
Re: Philippe Padieu knowingly infects at least 10 women with HIV- Now in prison
^^^That does not prevent cases like this. These women thought they were in a monogamous relationship. Same as women who are faithful to their husbands and catch an STD after he has cheated on them. Are we supposed to use condoms every time for the rest of our lives, even with marriage and "monogamy"?
Bottom line- you are never safe. And that is SO very sad.

I think that whenever you trust someone you have room to be fucked over. However, I don't think cases like this should reduce the sanctity of marriage. There are millions of people in loving, monogamous relationships who would never cheat on their spouses. To err on the side of caution, I don't think it hurts anyone to get tested at their yearly pap smear. I got tested for STDs when I got pregnant. It would have been selfish to "trust" my boyfriend's word... only to find out he lied and it hurt/killed my unborn child. Trust is important, but being positive is better.

How sad.
I read the womens' stories and I think someone said they were just looking for love....
One of the women even described how he injured her during sex and wouldn't stop - obviously he was trying to infect them.
It is so rare for men to contract it from sex with women, so how did he get it?
I don't think these women did anything wrong. People of that generation are unlikely carriers and not really used to condoms so it doesn't surprise me that they didn't use protection.
They were saying that on blogs people were calling them sluts and whores who deserved it (my how teenage boys terrorize people behind the internet). Fucked up.
Re: Philippe Padieu knowingly infects at least 10 women with HIV- Now in prison
I was just trying to find out how dude got it and ran across all these discussions about how these women are immoral, have loose morals, act like trash, frumpy and desperate, etc.
Who the f*** are these people to say that. Like no one else in the world ever had unprotected sex?
Reminds me of my sister's best friend in college. He was gay and got it from an older guy.
After they had finished, her friend said they should get together again some time. The older guy was like, no we shouldn't I have hiv. Bastard.
When people are spreading a deadly disease quarantine has been implemented. But I remember it being a really big debate and issue back in the 1980's. My feeling is people expect HIV carriers to behave morally instead of quarantine, I truly feel it's the least they can do.
Re: Philippe Padieu knowingly infects at least 10 women with HIV- Now in prison
they call them sluts becuz they are women. no one deserves to be tricked into catching a deadly disease. slut or not. who are we to judge? if it were a woman infecting men the men would not be judged. and the woman would get a life sentence.
Re: Philippe Padieu knowingly infects at least 10 women with HIV- Now in prison
It's so awful I can't even think about it. HIV scares me to death. I know two people right now who are living with it.
Notice his French name....I'm thinking European and bi. I'm also wondering how that many of the ladies got it. It's supposedly difficult to get it through vaginal intercourse. I'm thinking butt sex!
How on earth these guys can fool that many people at one time into believing they are in a monogamous relationship, just amazes me.

OMG.
I do think it should be a felony to do this.....
Re: Philippe Padieu knowingly infects at least 10 women with HIV- Now in prison
Apparently one time I looked up statistics and it's 11 time more likely for a woman to get it from normal sex. Correct me if you think I'm wrong.
I thought it was horrible that they got called "loose". If they hadn't gotten AIDS they eould probably be considered uptight for their monogamous sexual behavior.
No doubt he was bi or an Iv user.
This is why I have no patience for men who try dick. Maybe it's mean but safer.

They don't know exactly, of course, but most rate vaginal as much safer than anal intercourse. They are quoting 1 in 100,000 here vaginal transmission, vs. 1 in 31 lowest to 1 in 1300 highest for anal transmission.
This guy must've been strategically giving these women AIDS to infect that many.
Re: Philippe Padieu knowingly infects at least 10 women with HIV- Now in prison
I saw this on Oprah. It's horrifying...I feel horrible for those women and all of the other women that he probably infected too. It just goes to show you to ALWAYS trust your instincts and consider your health first and foremost.. Most people wouldn't think to ask their partner to get tested before they get intimate for the first time, but they should. I think this will open the eyes of many people.
Re: Philippe Padieu knowingly infects at least 10 women with HIV- Now in prison
The thing is, everyone is SO quick to blame these women.
WHAT THE FUCK!?
This guy is the bad one. How dare they.
Re: Philippe Padieu knowingly infects at least 10 women with HIV- Now in prison
In his mind, he has done nothing wrong and the women are all sluts who took advantage of him. I want him to get shanked in prison.
Re: Philippe Padieu knowingly infects at least 10 women with HIV- Now in prison
Public hanging need to come back into style. This shitbag had sex knowing he was transfering a lethal virus with no known cure. The texas cocktail id to humane. One rope, 13 wraps, one knot, and one drop.
