More potential victims surface in HIV case,
Lewiston Tribune, December 14, 2005

MOSCOW -- At least seven and possibly up to 20 or more people have been 
identified as potential victims of a 31-year-old Moscow man charged with 
transferring body fluids that may contain HIV, according to court records.

A second case, including six new counts involving different women, has been 
filed against Kanay A. Mubita. A single count identifying another woman was 
filed last week. Mubita remained in the Latah County Jail Tuesday on a 
$20,000 bond.

A preliminary hearing on all the counts has been scheduled for 9 a.m. 
Tuesday before Magistrate William Hamlett. Latah County Public Defender 
Charles Kovis of Moscow has been appointed to represent Mubita, who faces a 
maximum penalty of 15 years in prison and a $15,000 fine on each count if 
convicted.

According to additional police affidavit information filed in the second 
case, six women came forward in recent days to report they had sex with 
Mubita. All the women are identified by initials only and range in age from 
21 to 37, according to records.

Another three women left messages with police that they had sex with 
Mubita, according to records, and authorities have received information 
about nine additional potential victims who have yet to make contact with 
authorities.

"Abstract truth has no value unless it incarnates in human beings who 
represent it, by proving their readiness to die for it."

"Modern physics has taught us that the nature of any system cannot be 
discovered by dividing it into its component parts and studying each part 
by itself. . . .We must keep our attention fixed on the whole and on the 
interconnection between the parts. The same is true of our intellectual 
life. It is impossible to make a clear cut between science, religion, and 
art. The whole is never equal simply to the sum of its various parts." 
--Max Planck
