An allegation means nothing unless proven. HIV testing should be limited to the presents suspect’s DNA in the victim. Any positive result will create undue bias among both investigators and a jury. If there is a concern with infection appropriate medical care should given to the victim first. However I do believe that convicted sex offenders should be tested. Their guilt has been established beyond a reasonable doubt. Due process is what makes America the land of the free. Remember that.
I believe that this is a good idea. This way the victim can be notified if they test positive. I might even go as far as having anyone who gets arrested for any crime having to be tested at that time. Especailly for all those who are about to enter a prison and then those who are about to be released from prison should be tested.

I am the victim of an HIV+ sex offender lying about his status & his background. He has infected countless women & girls here in Philadelphia. What advise would you give to help direct me in fighting to have this law implemated here in Phila.PA
