In my days as a DSS monkey...
I was faced with an assorted bunch of scrotes, knob jockeys, cunts, wastes of space, and some thoroughly decent people actually.

This tale concerns one of the worst. Is it karma? I don't know - you decide.

This particular client I came across when I was working on reception in a DSS office. I had been warned about him - all charm and feckless innocence at first, but underneath a pretty nasty piece of work with a violent temper and a drug habit.

It was the drug habit that rendered him with the status of being probably the only person with HIV in the town - this came out because he was on Incapacity Benefit as a result of his condition, and it was on his sick note. Now, this is confidential information as far as we were concerned, but, being a small town, it didn't take long for word to get out somehow.

On the one occassion I encountered him in that particular phase of my career, he was harrassing his ex girlfriend by following her everywhere she went. Which on this occasion, happened to be when she had called into the office to make a claim for benefit.

Incapacity Benefit.

Because of her new-found HIV status, contracted from her twat of an ex.

Contracted, as he had known about his status but not bothered to tell her, and so deliberately infecting her.

(We can get into a debate about contraception and being careful, but I'm not going to).

Anyway, he had followed her in and was being generally intimidating and a bit scary, so we called the police, they arrived and carted him off, but not before he did a victory sign and danced around the office like an uncoordinated David Brent with Parkinson's.

Flash forward a few months, and I'm now doing the same job but in a smaller, satellite office (operated by me and me alone - really just an enquiry office in a different town). Who turns up? Yep, him, having moved to the area and is now of 'no fixed abode'. This being the nearest office, he has to come in every fortnight to collect his giro. At around the same time, a rather grisly murder is discovered when a similarly homeless character is found dead on a local beach. This character is known to be associated with our HIV positive friend, and the resulting investigation and subsequent court case is swift and unanimous. Guilty as hell, he's carted off to serve a hefty sentence.

Now, the karma here for me is the thought of our 'hero' in prison, surrounded by far nastier people than he who haven't had a woman for years, giving him a good seeing to, whilst in return slowly and unwittingly removing their own sorry hides from the gene pool...*



Am I twisted? More to the point, do I really bloody care? His ex seemed like a really nice person; young, pretty, and he knowingly handed her a death sentence, whilst performing a much quicker job on one of his so-called friends.

*Note to self - think of something light hearted for this week and be quick about it.*

And they say
Our prisons are overcrowded. Maybe he's doing a favour.

How do you know...
that the people rogering him are big enough cunts to deserve to get what he's got? not everyone in prison's a cunt, you know. on another note, you'd have to assume everyone's going to find out about his health status pretty quickly. if you think a small town is a centre of gossip, a prison would be even worse. i'm assuming, of course. no personal experience. no siree.

don't know about over there
but in America, the health status of an inmate is confidential....very confidential. The only way inmates find out about HIV in other inmates is if the one infected tells others. Which is why all officers view all inmates as having every disease imaginable.
Also, and i'm not 100% sure about this point, but if that happened here, I'm pretty sure he would have been charged with attempted murder for knowingly infecting her (ie: having sex with her without first telling her of his HIV status)

tuqueboy
I think the fact that whoever rogers him is a) bad enough to be put on a prison wing with murderers and also b) a rapist makes them bad enough to deserve HIV. People they bugger after him is another matter, but as for the prison rapists themselves, I'm pretty sure they deserve it.

I was...
making a fairly sweeping observation - obviously I don't have any idea about what he was faced with when he went into prison. And, I'm well aware that not every one in prison is necessarily a twat who deserves to be there... However, the type of inmates that may be rogering other inmates probably are...

I did say that the thought of it was karma enough for me. I'm not saying it happened. Hopefully he's dead now anyway. The bloke was a cunt of the highest order. He used to make my flesh crawl when he came into the office. But not as much as the kiddy fiddler I had to deal with - now he was the ultimate uber creep. He's been locked away as well now...
