According to prosecutors, a 22-year-old college student secretly filmed himself having unprotected sex with as many as 31 people, knowingly exposing them to HIV.
In October, Michael Johnson, a student
and former wrestler at Lindenwood University in Missouri, was charged
with five felony counts of exposing partners to HIV. Some time later,
police discovered the sex tapes—reportedly filmed with hidden
cameras—stored on Johnson's laptop. Prosecutors disclosed the
discovery on Friday.
"On that laptop were 32 videos
engaged in sexual acts with Mr. Johnson," said Tim Lohmar, a St.
Charles County prosecutor, told KMOV, adding that the tapes showed
Johnson having sex with 31 partners over four months in his dorm at
Lindenwood.
Lohmar also said that it's unlikely the
partners knew about Johnson's HIV positive status.
Johnson, known online as Tiger Mandingo, met his partners—most of whom, if not all, were men—through his
six social media accounts (three Facebook pages, two Twitter feeds,
a Vine and an Instagram), according to the River Front Times.
If convicted, Johnson faces life in prison.
