..I don't think anyone is defending it Kate..not in the slightest..the guy is a sicko
...but I'm not convinced the sentencing isn't too high, in comparison to a perpertrator of a violent crime

[MTVN]

'Twas a bit silly of him

[Z]

How horrendous!

[Callum]

Fair enough sentence, she could have gotten an STI, that's just a disgusting thing to do.

[Jessica.]

That is absolutely disgusting.

[Kazanne]

That made me feel sick,disgusting piece of filth he is,but the fact that some think it's no big deal is quite telling ,it seems some people don't care what others do as long as they deem it funny or of course it doesn't affect them!!and 2 years is fair it's just the lenient sentencing for other crimes that is pitiful,we should have more judges like this.

[Me. I Am Salman]

he's putting the woman's health at risk as she could have contracted HIV
so 2 years is a joke tbh
he should get 4 years
he's a vile knobhead, putting it nicely

[Brother Leon]

2 Years?


This world is a joke. I give up.

So, what crimes do you believe are worthy of being murdered by the state, Arista?

I have to be honest, I'm in two minds about this. What he did was disgusting and..yes potentially dangerous. I presume the lady didn't contract anything. I'm thinking about victims of violence, who are scarred for life and I know, because a member of my family is one of those, that not even a prison sentence is given in many cases, let alone a two year one.
I don't condone what he has done at all and a punishment indeed, is appropriate..I'm not convinced it warrents two years.
I have watched on TV and heard of numerous cases where, in restaurants..the staff have spat into food and served it to diners. They could contract HIV too...but prison sentences, to my knowledge, are not given.
Morally, it may be different..but the law isn't about morals.

....hmm..I'm undecided

You cannot get Aids from saliva.

I wonder if he held the back of her head in place while she ate it!

On the plus side, he'll be classed as a sex offender in prison, and other prisoners don't like sex offender prisoners. His sentence will probably seem at least 3 times longer.

I didn't think that was conclusive, only unlikely, and there are other diseases she could have contacted...but she didn't..unless I'm missing that fact.
That part of it is irrelevant..she didn't get HIV or any other disease that I know of.
Emotionally, it is....disgusting. However..there are no scars..no physical injuries...no lengthy hospital recovery..no surgeries.
Two years does not seem in proportion to the sentencing of someone who has committed a violent criminal act.

HIV can be contracted via semen, but not via spit, the viral load is not high enough to be a significant risk.

What this man did is disgusting, but two years in prison seems a little excessive, unless he had HIV in which case it would not be enough imo.

As said before you can pass on an std, now imagine if she had given it to an infant....

[Roy Mars III]

he won't spend anywhere near to two years in prison

[Sam:)]

I dont even mean this as a joke but she must have had her fair share if she recognised the taste immediatly....

I actually thought this too...

I don't think she knew the taste immediately. She just knew it wasn't good lol. Doesn't say a lot about his... erm... diet.

[Vicky.]

How vile.

That said, I find it a bit off that he gets longer in jail for this than most people get for assault and stuff like that.

I doubt I would think that if it had been me sampling the yoghurt though

..yes, that's the part I have a problem with..I think it is disgusting and had she contracted an STD..it should be taken into consideration...but she didn't..I don't think.
I know myself, I cannot remain unemotional about violence because of personal experience..however, I am forced to accept the law because the law is not emotional.
However, I feel about what he has done, I'm not sure the sentencing feels appropriate
