Someone in [livejournal.com profile] feminist seems to think that the woman in this story is being unfairly singled out.

There is being a feminist, and then there is being a human being. Look at the facts of the situation and then tell me if there's any bias.

Just wondering - did they really establish that she infected him? Did they do viral genetic tests to determine whether they even had the same strain of HIV? The timeline described in the article allows that she may have infected him, but does not rule out the possibility that he infected her, or that they were each infected by somebody else. And even if she did infect him, it may have occurred before she knew she was infected - They were together for about as long before she found out as after she found out:

Sep 2002 - they started dating
June 2003 - she found out she was infected
Early 2004 - they broke up
Dec 2004 - he found out he was infected

I hope the court had more conclusive info on hand than is given in the article!
