44-Year-Old Man Ordered To Notify The Police 24 Hours Before Having Sex

A Southampton Magistrates’ Court has ordered an HIV-positive man to give 24 hours notice to the police each time he intends to have sex.

44-year-old Norman O’Neill was served with the order following a civil case brought by Hampshire Constabulary against him.

UK based O’Neill was also asked to provide the details of each woman he plans on having sex with so the police can alert them about his condition before hand.

He has been banned from inviting any women into his home unless he calls the police first.

Before now, O’Neill was alleged to have left several women helpless by engaging in unprotected sex without telling them about his medical condition

O’Neill was served with a 4-year Sexual Risk Order in th civil case. Southampton Magistrates’ Court heard that he had not been convicted of any offence. .

According to Detective Sergeant, Craig Fielding, O’Neill had enticed women to his home with promises of drugs and alcohol. .

On one occasion, “a woman woke up the following day to discover the lower half of her clothing had been removed,” Fielding said.

“She made a formal complaint but O’Neill denied raping her and there was insufficient evidence that sexual intercourse had taken place, the court heard.

“On another occasion, a woman woke up to find her clothes torn and blood on her legs. O’Neill locked her in the flat for several days, the court was told.

“He was arrested but denied committing any offences and the woman was not prepared to support a prosecution.”

However, describing the terms of the order, which includes a 10pm to 7am curfew, District Judge Peter Greenfield said: ‘He approached these women late at night, made offers of drink and cannabis, and induced them to go with him to his flat.

‘One of them was held for three days.

‘He has not told any of the women he has HIV.

‘He does present a danger to females in this city .in my view, it is necessary to make the order.’

Meanwhile, the court declared that if he fails to comply with the order he could be prosecuted and jailed for up to five years.
