Detersâ office filed a new charge of felonious assault against Anthony Pecord, 48. Pecord has already been sentenced to four years in prison over the same incident â but prosecutors didnât know he was HIV positive until after his conviction, according to Deters.
Neither did the victim.
âThe trauma of a sexual assault is something that changes you forever,â Deters wrote in a statement. âTo add to that the fear of contracting HIV is horrifying for the victim.
