Hairdresser Bags Life Sentence for Deliberately Infecting Men With HIV by Tampering With Condoms


A hairdresser has been sentenced to life in prison for deliberately infecting men with HIV after meeting them on Grindr.

Daryll Rowe, 27, had requested a more lenient punishment, claiming the disease was no longer terminal and that those diagnosed had "good and high life expectancy".

His lawyers asked the judge to pass a sentence that would not add to the "social stigma" of HIV, but inform the public the virus is not what it was in the 1990s.

On Wednesday afternoon at Brighton Crown Court, Judge Christine Henson QC disagreed, and made history by sentencing Rowe to life with a minimum term of 12 years.

He is the first person in the UK to be convicted of grievous bodily harm with intent in relation to HIV.

Victims told how they had considered suicide and Rowe's first target, who was diagnosed with HIV in January 2016, said: "Daryll has destroyed my life. I would rather he had murdered me than left me to live my life like this."

Another, whose parents died of Aids when he was a child, said he "did everything" to prevent himself catching the virus.

Rowe's six-week trial heard he embarked on a cynical and deliberate campaign to infect men with the disease, refusing treatment and ignoring advice from doctors.

He insisted on having unprotected sex with men, claiming he was "clean". When they refused, he covertly tampered with condoms by either tearing them or cutting off the end, tricking his victims into thinking they were having safe sex.
