Man told he must give police 24 hours before he intends to have sex
A man branded a ‘danger to women’ by a judge has been ordered to give police 24 hours notice every time he intends to have sex.
X must contact officers and provide the details of each woman he plans on having sex with and is banned from inviting any females into his home unless he calls police first.
A court heard the 44-year-old allegedly put ‘vulnerable’ women at risk by failing to tell them he has HIV by engaging in unprotected sex without telling them about his medical condition.
X has also been told he must inform women he has HIV before any sexual activity takes place and police will contact the women in advance to issue an appropriate warning
He has been given a four-year Sexual Risk Order and if he breaks it faces up to five years in jail.
He was served with the order at Southampton Magistrates’ Court, Hants, following a civil case brought by Hampshire Constabulary.
The court heard X, from Southampton, has not been convicted of any offence – however, he was alleged to have put “vulnerable” women at risk by engaging in unprotected sex without telling them he has HIV.
Detective Sergeant Craig Fielding, from Hampshire Constabulary, told the court X enticed women back to his home with promise of drugs and alcohol.
The court heard on one occasion a woman woke up to discover the lower half of her clothing had been removed.
She made a formal complaint but X denied raping her and there was insufficient evidence that sexual intercourse had taken place.
On another occasion a woman allegedly woke up to find her clothes torn and blood on her legs.
The court was told O’Neill locked her in the flat for several days.
He was arrested but denied committing any offences and the woman was not prepared to support a prosecution.
DS Fielding said: “It’s almost as concerning as an incident can be – holding someone against their will and allegedly raping them.”
