"HIV Predator" Fights To Be Released



How can you do that as a person? You're an animal for doing what you have done..
And to still think it's okay to want to do it some more. Stay in jail, where you belong.

BUFFALO, N.Y. (WIVB) - The sex offender who knowingly infected more than a dozen women with HIV was in court Wednesday morning, fighting to be released from prison.

Nushawn Williams, 33, has a new attorney representing him now. The state wants to keep Williams away from society, even after his 12-year prison term is up.

Williams, who changed his name to Shyteek Johnson, came to court Wednesday morning with his new attorney, Dan Grasso. Williams had his hair pulled back, this is a different appearance than we've seen before.

The State Attorney General's office believes he is still a risk to society, based on his behavior in prison.

Prosecutors say he earlier, intentionally infected women with HIV. He has allegedly told another inmate that he wants to infect other women when he gets out.

Linda Ulrich-Hagner has been following this case, and says it is a good time to warn kids of the dangers of unprotected sex.

"Parents are looking to speak to their kids, or grandparents or whoever their young adults, these are very teachable talking times. You talk to them about Nushawn Williams and you talk about unprotected sex. And you talk not only about pregnancy, but getting HIV, AIDS. They are times for them to talk. It's still in my heart and soul of teaching that we need to educate our young adults, to keep themselves in safe environments and keep themselves safe from these kinds of diseases."
