Meet 22-year-old Michael Johnson, a student at Lindenwood University in Missouri. Johnson secretly recorded himself having sex with 31 different people. Johnson is HIV-positive. He’s pretty much the worst human being ever.
Police originally believed Johnson had infected only a handful of people. That was until prosecutors discovered Johnson’s sex tapes.
“On that laptop were 32 videos engaged in sexual acts with Mr. Johnson,” said Tim Lohmar, St. Charles County prosecutor.
Lohmar said Johnson can be seen with 31 unidentified people in videos taken over four months. Most of the videos were shot on the campus of Lindenwood University in St. Charles. Johnson has already been charged with five counts of knowingly transmitting the disease.
“It’s safe to safe that numerous of those videos were taken inside his dorm room; we know that because we recognize the furniture,”
Lohmar said most of victims not only likely had no idea they were being video-taped; they were clueless that Johnson had HIV.
This has now turned into a public health nightmare. Officials at Lindenwood Universtiy are scrambling to identify students that may have been infected.
If convicted, Johnson faces lifetime in prison. He probably deserves a much worse fate.
