<DIV><FONT face=Verdana size=4>Shelly raises excellent points.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Verdana size=4></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Verdana size=4>We still need to focus on the fact that the local
magistrate Hamlett saw fit to grant such an absurdly low bail --
$5,000.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Verdana size=4></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Verdana size=4>Included in the factors that a magistrate
considers when setting bail are:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Verdana size=4></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Verdana size=4>1. Strength and seriousness of
the case against the suspect.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Verdana size=4>2. The flight risk of the
suspect.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Verdana size=4>3. The danger to the community
of the suspect.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Verdana size=4></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Verdana size=4></FONT> </DIV><FONT face=Verdana size=4>
<DIV><FONT face=Verdana color=#0000ff size=4>1. Strength and
seriousness of the case against the suspect.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>If the report in the <EM>Lewiston Morning Tribune</EM> (below) is correct,
then there appears to be little doubt that the suspect is infected with HIV and
knew that he was infected. The other evidence, having sex without
informing his partner of his HIV status, rests upon an affidavit, a sworn
statement.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>A number of V 2020 posters have commented upon the seriousness of the
crime. He may well have the primary vector in sentencing several people to
a lingering, horrid death.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>The job of the magistrate is to set the bail commensurate with the rights
of the defendant and but also commensurate with other factors including those
above. This is a serious case with some potent <EM>prima facie</EM>
evidence. If the suspect has infected someone with HIV, then he is most
likely a murderer.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Verdana color=#0000ff size=4>2. The flight
risk of the suspect.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>It is less than a four hour drive to the Canadian border if one obeys the
speed limits; less if one does not. I lived in Boundary County for
two extended periods in my life, once less than a mile from the border, and once
less than five miles from the border. In addition, I owned for more than
25 years a piece of property only about 100 yards from the border. I also
owned a piece of property for many years about 1/2 mile from the border on the
Canadian side. Getting across the border in Boundary County in both
legitimate and illegitimate ways is very easy. Once across the border
extradition back to the United States is very difficult (and expensive for Latah
County) for someone who has not been convicted and who is not an American
citizen.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>To arrange a $5,000 bail bound costs only <FONT color=#0000ff
size=6><STRONG>$500</STRONG></FONT> from a bondsman. Is $500 too much to
pay for freedom for someone likely facing an extended prison term?
Hence there is some reasonable probability that a decampment may take place if
the suspect is released on a small amount of bail.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Verdana color=#0000ff size=4>3. The danger to
the community of the suspect.</FONT></DIV></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>If the allegations are true, and the <EM>prima facie</EM> evidence strongly
suggest they are highly probable, then <FONT color=#ff0000><STRONG>the suspect
has shown utter and callous disregard for the life and well being of his prior
sexual partners</STRONG></FONT>. Hence it is highly probable that if
released on bail his behavior pattern would continue.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Here's an analogy:</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Suppose someone had shot with a gun and had mortally wounded a number of
persons over a period of time. Suppose the suspect had demonstrated that
he was strongly motivated to shoot and he enjoyed shooting and mortally wounding
people. Would a prudent judge release such a person on $5,000 bail and
then let the suspect keep the gun he used?</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>One of the functions of the magistrate in a bail hearing is to protect the
public. How many more vectoring possibilities will occur if the suspect is
out on bail? Or if he flees? How many more people might become
infected and eventually die? What was magistrate Hamlett thinking?
Does he not care for the rights and welfare of the public?</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>There have been numerous complaints and criticisms from credible people
about magistrate Hamlett's demeanor and conduct on the bench. Perhaps in
the past the Judicial Council has taken some action. Perhaps he is
under special monitoring from the Judicial Council even now.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>This lapse of judgment by Hamlett should be the last straw. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>One can only hope for two things:</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>1. Hamlett resigns forthwith.</DIV>
<DIV>2. The Latah County Prosecutor petitions the court for a
much higher bail, say $250,000.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>There has been some suggestion that the suspect is being singled out
because of his race and ethnicity. I cannot speak for anyone else, but I
don't care what his race, ethnicity, gender, gender preference, age, etc
are. It is a horrible crime of which he is accused, and I would consider
it such in his own homeland.</DIV>

<H1>Hearing set for Moscow man facing HIV charge</H1><!--End Headline--><BR><!--Start Byline-->
<ADDRESS>By DAVID JOHNSON<BR>of the Tribune</ADDRESS><!--End Byline-->
<P><A name=story><!--Start Story--></A>MOSCOW -- A Dec. 20 preliminary hearing
has been scheduled for a Moscow man charged with a felony count of transfer of
body fluids that may contain HIV.
<P>Kanay A. Mubita, 31, remained in the Latah County Jail Friday night on a
$5,000 bond after being arrested Wednesday by Moscow police. Latah County Public
Defender Charles Kovis has been assigned to the case.
<P>Mubita is accused, according to the criminal complaint, of having sexual
intercourse with a woman one year ago without first informing her that he
carried HIV. The virus can lead to AIDS.
<P>The woman, 27, has a child that Mubita told authorities he fathered,
according to an affidavit filed by Moscow police officer Paul Kwiatkowski.
<P>Mubita, who was born in Luska, Zambia, denied having sexual relations with
anyone else except his ex-wife, according to records. But an investigation found
that Mubita tested positive for HIV and allegedly "continued to have unprotected
sexual relations with different partners" without first notifying them of his
HIV status, according to records.
<P>Authorities also questioned Mubita about whether he had sexual relations with
a 26-year-old female, but he denied knowing the woman, according to records.
<P>Mubita's arrest came after prosecutors forwarded documentation to police,
according to records. Kwiatkowski wrote in his affidavit that Mubita agreed to
be interviewed and came to the police station Tuesday on his own. While he was
being interviewed by one officer, another officer called <FONT color=#ff0000>a
health department official</FONT> who <FONT color=#ff0000>confirmed</FONT>,
according to the affidavit, <FONT color=#ff0000>that Mubita had been informed
<STRONG><FONT color=#0000ff size=6>several times</FONT></STRONG> that he tested
positive for HIV</FONT>.
<P>But Mubita, according to the affidavit, continued to deny having received
notification from anyone about his HIV status. When police asked him to make a
written statement, Mubita asked permission to go home and write it, according to
the affidavit, and police agreed.
<P>The next day, according to the affidavit, police received a phone call from
Mubita's case worker who said Mubita was upset about the previous day's
interview. The case worker asked police to check on him, according to the
affidavit.
<P>When officers contacted <FONT color=#ff0000>Mubita</FONT> at his apartment,
<FONT color=#ff0000><FONT color=#000000>he</FONT> said he had indeed tested
positive for HIV, according to the affidavit</FONT>.
<P>The intentional transfer of body fluids which may contain the HIV virus is
punishable by a maximum penalty of 15 years in prison and a $5,000 fine.
</P> </FONT></DIV>

<DIV>Janesta,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Statistics are not a matter of the incident. It happened. YES IT IS
A WAKE UP CALL.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I can tell you there are many girls asking many questions at
the club that Phil and I are are not educated enough to answer. We refer
them to the health department. Hopefully they call there. I have put in
a call to them this morning to get some information at least what to
tell these girls. I am in great hopes they have a plan to get the
word and knowledge out to the public. Putting up posters/flyers in the
bars in Moscow is out. A news reporter has contacted Phil as he is the
only bar who posted Kenay's picture along with the Daily News article
and a phone number to call. The reporter informed Phil she was told by
the other bars, "that it would hurt business." If any other bars,
businesses are listening, Vision 2020 would love to hear from you. Yes,
Phil is giving them an interview today.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I have also mentioned to the Detective on this case that I am sure
UoI keeps records of all the students. Maybe they could send a letter to
all the students from the past five years. The Detective told
me today he would be contacting UoI.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>If a female slept with an HIV positive person and then slept with
another male who slept with another female................... on and on
............... could the virus be passed? I don't want to hear
"statistics." Yes or no will do.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Janesta, thank you for caring enough to keep this thread
going. Our community should not be asleep on this one.</DIV>

Department of Health Question</DIV></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I am more than curious. Does anyone know the role of</DIV>
<DIV>the Department of Health regarding the recent HIV</DIV>
<DIV>incident? Will posters be put up in the businesses</DIV>
<DIV>Kanay frequented, to inform women who may have had</DIV>
<DIV>intimate contact with him?</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I strongly feel education is the key to reaching these</DIV>
<DIV>women, and was wondering who was taking charge of</DIV>
<DIV>this? I have read the paper, and seen the TV. What of</DIV>
<DIV>those students who are in dead week, or dont read</DIV>
<DIV>the paper, or watch TV?</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>If anyone knows, or has ideas, I am interested in</DIV>
<DIV>hearing answers and ideas. I think the HIPPA laws are</DIV>
<DIV>very important. However, he has been arrested, and is</DIV>
<DIV>in jail, as those of us who read vision2020 know. He</DIV>
<DIV>is HIV+ and has had relations with unsuspecting women,</DIV>
<DIV>(who should have used condoms, or abstained
but that</DIV>
<DIV>is another letter).</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>This is something Moscow hasnt faced before. We can</DIV>
<DIV>use this incident as a way to catalyze our community</DIV>
<DIV>into action, as a team, or bury our heads in the sand</DIV>
<DIV>and act as if this never happens. I would venture to</DIV>
<DIV>guess, Kanay is not the first, nor will he be the last</DIV>
<DIV>person to do this. Either, knowingly or unknowingly. I</DIV>
<DIV>sincerely hope the bar owners take responsible action,</DIV>
<DIV>put posters up, and educate people. It is</DIV>
<DIV>uncomfortable. A business owner may wonder if they</DIV>
<DIV>will lose business. I think they will gain respect,</DIV>
<DIV>for being pro-active.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I have lived in a safe little bubble, my community of</DIV>
<DIV>Moscow, for over 40 years. The bubble has been burst.</DIV>
<DIV>It is in my face, in spite of whether I want it there</DIV>
<DIV>or not. Africa is a long way away. We dont see the</DIV>
<DIV>suffering there. HIV is not in some faraway land</DIV>
<DIV>fellow citizens; it is HERE!</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>We can argue about statistics of condom use, no use,</DIV>
<DIV>or abstinence. Makes no difference, people are going</DIV>
<DIV>to be sexually active regardless of our personal</DIV>
<DIV>beliefs.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>If someone hears about a plan, please let me know.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Thanks!</DIV>
