What to do with HIV-positive Jennifer Murphy and the Russian roulette she plays with her sex partners?

Sentencing of HIV-positive Jennifer Murphy, convicted last week on one count of aggravated sexual assault for having intercourse without using a condom, has been postponed as the prosecution asked for and got an adjournment. The Crown is considering having Murphy designated a long-term offender.

The 40-year-old, however, has defined herself as an HIV educator and addictions counsellor. Also, simply, a sexy woman.

In the prisoner’s dock of a Barrie courthouse on Tuesday, Murphy did not appear remotely sexy, though this is obviously a subjective opinion. Ashen, blowsy, maybe 30 pounds heavier than the last time we laid eyes on her nine months ago – time spent in custody.
