Man guilty of giving son blood with HIV
Monday, December 7, 1998
By JASON STRAIT
The Associated Press
ST. CHARLES, Mo. -- A man convicted of injecting his son with the AIDS
virus may spend the rest of his life in prison -- a prospect that is
little comfort to the boy's mother.
"Although the trial is over and the one responsible for this inhumane
crime has been brought to justice . . . my son has been robbed of a
normal childhood and given an unjust sentence of his own," said the
woman, identified only as Jennifer to protect the boy's identity.
A jury convicted Brian Stewart, 32, of Columbia, Ill., of first-degree
assault late Saturday and recommended life in prison. Sentencing was set
for Jan. 8.
Stewart's son, now 7, was diagnosed with AIDS in 1996. The boy's mother
wept briefly and became ill after hearing the verdict.
Stewart showed no emotion. He is expected to appeal.
Prosecutors used circumstantial evidence to convince the jury that
Stewart, who worked as a hospital technician at the time, stole
HIV-infected blood from his workplace and injected it into the
11-month-old boy during a hospital visit in 1992.
Prosecutors said his motive was to avoid paying child support. No
syringe or any other evidence linking Stewart to the crime was found.
"The circumstantial evidence is like a number of strings that weave
together and make a rope. It's a very strong rope that bears the weight
of a conviction," prosecutor Ross Buehler said.
Buehler called the injection a "death sentence" for the child and
referred to Stewart as "the monster" during closing arguments. He said
Stewart had access to HIV-tainted blood through his job as a medical
assistant. And more important, he said, Stewart had a motive.
"In the mind of an evil genius, HIV was the perfect disease to inject a
death sentence into the child's veins," Buehler said.
Witnesses testified that Stewart often issued threats that he could end
people's lives by injecting them with "something."
The mother said that once during an argument with Stewart over the boy,
Stewart told her: "You won't need to look me up for child support anyway
because your child is not going to live very long."
Defense attorney Joe Murphy said the prosecution presented no actual
proof that Stewart injected his son. He said the case consisted of
imaginary evidence and alleged threats Stewart never followed through
with.
The defense also contended the boy could have gotten the virus in a
number of other ways. The child was hospitalized frequently and lived
with three admitted drug users for a three-week period. However, all
three tested negative for HIV, the mother is HIV-negative, the boy has
never had a blood transfusion, and a medical exam found no evidence of
sexual abuse.

I guess more from the *said sobbing* " I can't cope" here's an actual
snippet about the case.
Giving Your Child AIDS
Okay, we're going deep into the abyss now...
If the reports are correct, a medical technician in 1992
came up with an innovative means of avoiding child
support: He injected his son with HIV-infected blood (and
yes, the boy has full-blown AIDS today).
If there's a more depressing story on the Web today, let me
know.
Or maybe don't.
[Update: In January 1999, he was sentenced to life in
prison, but the judge in the case told him he going to "burn
in hell from here to eternity."
Fair enough.
Daddy Dearest will be eligible for parole in 15 years, but if
the boy dies -- not unlikely, since he's since developed
AIDS -- prosecutors plan to retry him for murder and
call for the death penalty.]
