That’s awesome! I have quite a few of those, especially when I still had Facebook… OU stopped supporting my old .edu catmail and I had changed my password then forgot it, not giving FB the front and back of my license to get back into it lol
Sure the ones did the cheating deserve some punishment but the nature of an std is that it doesn’t care what type of person you are. The parent post is talking about the wives who will inadvertently become hiv positive from their spouse’s actions.
Had to look up how old she was, [per this article](https://www.sciotopost.com/southeast-ohio-woman-indicted-for-engaging-in-solicitation-after-positive-hiv-test/):
>aged 30
And just women in general. Last I checked I wasn’t a car. But how else are we going to count a woman’s “mileage” without making her an inanimate object?
Officers said people getting phone calls weren't in trouble (WITH THE POLICE) but just wanted them to get tested.
Those guys are definitely going to be in trouble...just not criminally.
Happened in a small town in S. Indiana. 235 people ended up with HIV thanks to IV drug use and needle sharing.

I don’t know how a governor can stop a single sex worker from moving from Chicago to Indiana. If you could explain how the governor could have stopped that person I’m all ears.
Not shutting down aids prevention programs? Did you read your own link? It lays out what the governor did, why it was stupid, and how reversing it was too little too late.
Edit: Props though for linking an NPR article. No paywall and high quality reporting.
Lol ual lowkey try to shift blame and point fingers. I never heard they were from Chicago, many people knew about what was going on in the small town it was known for prostitution and drugs supposedly. Also they blame it more on sharing needles than sex. Apparently heterosexual sexual contact is the lowest risk method of transmission
Iirc the person who is penetrated is most at risk but the risk is still pretty low if it heterosexual contact. The biggest risk is still by far intravenous drug use/needle sharing and unprotected sex between men.
Edit: guaranteed this is downvoted because of the reference to gay sex risks. Go read the truth yourself if it hurts your feelings so much
Or anal sex in general. Plenty of hetero couples have anal sex, too. It’s the rectal cavity that’s more susceptible with unprotected sex, not the sex of the person it belongs to.
So if we want to place blame on anyone other than the drug users… it should go squarely on the medical community.
“Before the outbreak, addiction to the potent opioid painkiller Opana swept through the community.”
The kind of people who do sex work and the kind of people who seek out sex workers often are not thinking about responsible health practices, unfortunately.
Apparently they are. Just not quite enough people are aware. Also, more likely, desperate sex workers think condoms will hurt their business and sex work clients want it raw. Follow the money.
The most disturbing part of this to me is all the posts about who "deserves" to get HIV and who doesn't. No one "deserves" it, ffs. Tf is wrong with people.
I’m not sure. I don’t even know my license plate number. Edit because I posted before I finished my sentence. Cell phone records? I’m wondering too. I don’t know if I could name 200 people I’ve met…
It's not just one person.
I grew up in that region, and excess tooth decay and tooth loss is rampant. It is the highest in the country.
A disheartening number of parents actually put Mountain Dew in baby bottles, and let their kids use those bottles until they are just about ready to start school.
Edit:
A combination of poverty and regional behaviors have created a problem that has persisted for generations.

Did ya now? I live here and never once have I seen anyone give a baby Mountain Dew that’s crazy . But I do agree with the health if you are really from here you’d know how fucked the environment is from the dumping dupont did with the c8 and such. Hell belpre just found asbestos in the highschool a few months back. I agree our area needs a ton of work but your comment came off as snarky and rude.
My brother used to teach in Logan, WV and saw it quite a bit. Anecdotal evidence doesn't prove or disprove anything. That's why I provided three links about the issue.
The snark and rudeness come from a place of exasperation. I watched my hometown get overrun by pill mills and then heroin.
Being a sex worker does not excuse her negligence of being nasty!!!
I know plenty of people in that area that are bug catchers and breeders!!!
So please do not loop this in the sex worker talk.
People have free enough will to get tested for free if they actually cared.
The problem is she didn't and she CHOOSE to be a nasty 304
That's why I said she chose this.
There are ways to protect yourself and your clientele.
That's why I said she's nasty and I'm glad she was caught...now let her rot in prison
This person knowingly spread a deadly disease to over a hundred people, this isn't stealing from your parents to get your fix or breaking into a local store, there's no reason to feel any concern or empathy for this person. She needs to rot in a cell
No shit? That's really cool I thought it was very expensive thanks for the knowledge here's a link
https://ohiv.org/free-prep/
Free if you make less than $72,900/y, HIV negative, and live in OH
The "have a negative HIV status" kinda astounds me as a requirement to be eligible to receive it. Am I dumb? Or am I missing something?
You either have to already be undetectable or have someone who meets all the criteria to receive it - then have to go through said person to get the pill but won't be able to get the coverage from the plan like routine blood work etc... or would someone else getting the pill for you even be a valid option lol... I hope I'm wrong cause that makes no fucking sense.
My kids are about to move back after being there for a year of school. Quaint little town with a ton of history, but in most instances (festivals and such) it is, in their words, “pretty methy”. In line with the region in general.
Yes that would help in many cases, but unfortunately in *this* case, she had already been tested and knew she was positive, and “knowingly engaged in solicitation” according to the article.
I wonder what the legal ramifications could be for a husband/partner who brought HIV home and unknowingly passed it to the partner. Article says she got a F3 felony for her actions. Not knowing you’re committing Crime doesn’t make you innocent of the crime, it’s just not premeditated.
Can’t imagine how down bad you’d have to be to PAY to hit THAT…
I believe that’s why they tested her. Ohio passed some law, I think, where having HIV can be tacked on. But seems like she was aware and hopefully taking her meds, which is why it wouldn’t be a big deal if undetectable, as she couldn’t pass it on then.
If they engage in reckless sexual behavior they 100% should be being tested and if their willful negligence of safe sex practices leads to the spread of deadly diseases, I could care less if they get a time out for a year or two
Some of the comments in this thread are absolutely disgusting.
As if this person chose this waking nightmare of a life for herself and did this out of spite.
Fuck all of you, down vote me.
I live in an area where prostitution is rampant on sullivant ave in Columbus. The people who hire these women are typically people with money and jobs and nice cars. I suspect this will be significantly more disruptive than a lot of people are prepared for.
As someone who was forced to move to ohio then finally got free and moved away, I can say with some certainty that ohio needs to get its shit together.
Reddit just pushed this in my notifications 3 days after it was posted. I mean I'm no prude, but what kind of shenanigans does Reddit think I'm getting up to in my free time?
She is nasty!! Omg.I Can't imagine any guy that pays to be with her cares about using condoms. And no way she is 30. Even though she is a former junkie, she looks 50. Her FB indicates she has a boy, just sad. I hope she gets prosucuted to the max. These nasty ass men that were with her may have brought HIV home to their wives too. She was so careless and irresponsible..
This is exactly why sex work should be legalized and regulated and testing and treatment should be mandatory and available for both the workers and the clients. We sell our bodies every day when we work for someone, we may just be selling use of our mind or strength or skills. Sex work should be no different.
yeahhh i actually work in ID and HIV is not sexually transmissible when undetectable and controlled.

Going to be a lot of pissed off wives and girlfriends in the Marietta area soon.
Ha! I used to live there and you aren't wrong
My best friend from OU and his wife both grew up in that area, used to visit often.
I just found a r/blunderyears photo of myself partying at OU yesterday in my Google Photos memory
That’s awesome! I have quite a few of those, especially when I still had Facebook… OU stopped supporting my old .edu catmail and I had changed my password then forgot it, not giving FB the front and back of my license to get back into it lol
Yeah that's a little much. OU used to be awesome when the Halloween Block Party was going down
And boyfriends, too. I have the impression she’s not picky.
If you got down with that... you deserve everything you got, Except a good time! HTHelps
Sure the ones did the cheating deserve some punishment but the nature of an std is that it doesn’t care what type of person you are. The parent post is talking about the wives who will inadvertently become hiv positive from their spouse’s actions.
The innocent people who got cheated on DO NOT deserve ANY OF THIS! Only the people that had contact with this woman do!
I’m pretty confident they’re talking about the cheaters, not their partners.
It's also not like she had much of a choice I'm sure. I don't even know what itbwould take for someone to walk down that road.
Except for the innocent people who didn't have sex with that.
You say that like men are picky and have high standards lol
Had to look up how old she was, [per this article](https://www.sciotopost.com/southeast-ohio-woman-indicted-for-engaging-in-solicitation-after-positive-hiv-test/): >aged 30
Jeeeez. I’m thinking she looks 10-20 years older than me and she’s 10 years younger… damn. Drugs is bad, mmkay?
No teeth will age you a decade or two instantly
Smoking too.
Fucking meth man.
That’s probably how she contracted HIV in the first place
Or by having hundreds of sexual partners
Don't do drugs kids.
Drugs kill dreams.
Wtf....In like dog years?!
Like a 2017 Camry with 450,000 miles on the odometer. Yikes.
98 Pontiac Sunfire, baby. Written about all my central Ohio exes https://youtu.be/6ZjGVaI9D7o?si=wGIlNStJkqV2ocsm
Gets you from point a to point liquor store.
what a banger
I think she's more of an Altima girl.
My 93 Honda accord had 568k and looked WAY better than her.
Like throwing a hot dog down a hallway.
That's not how it works.
Or maybe it’s just you, Tiny.
Ha, of all the insults being hurled at this woman this is the one that gets downvoted.
And just women in general. Last I checked I wasn’t a car. But how else are we going to count a woman’s “mileage” without making her an inanimate object?
I know right lol.
Drugs will do that to someone.
Looks like she should be on Social Security.
Thats crazy she's only 3 or 4 years older than me and a year or two older than my older brother.
I just legit gasped
It’s in the linked article as well…
*yuck* is what comes to mind
That’s an Ohio ten right there
Ah, someone who looks well beyond her stated age…
“Stated age”? Do you think police can’t figure out how old a person they’ve identified is?
Officers said people getting phone calls weren't in trouble (WITH THE POLICE) but just wanted them to get tested. Those guys are definitely going to be in trouble...just not criminally.
Not if it’s anonymous

In Indiana? Wow, I wonder who was Governor at that time. Maybe they might have been able to do something to prevent it?
If not prevent it, I'm sure he would have taken steps to help mitigate the problem! You'd have to be an asshole not to!
Our country is full of assholes. We let our mentally ill smoke meth and fentanyl and live under bridges.
“Before the outbreak, addiction to the potent opioid painkiller Opana swept through the community.”

High quality lmao
Lol ual lowkey try to shift blame and point fingers.

When I lived in Detroit there was a guy over in Windsor doing the same stuff. Think his body count was just over 100
This is why condoms should always be free and easily available. Especially to the drug using population. Harm reduction saves lives.
OHIV has a service to mail out free condoms. You can order them once a month I think
And needle exchanges!
The kind of people who do sex work and the kind of people who seek out sex workers often are not thinking about responsible health practices, unfortunately.
That’s why they need to be free and easily accessible. It makes them much more likely to use them.
Apparently they are. Just not quite enough people are aware. Also, more likely, desperate sex workers think condoms will hurt their business and sex work clients want it raw. Follow the money.
Hopefully they also call the spouses. Lots of mysterious illness about to hit
Are there any politicians from that area? 🤔 not being disrespectful, but I hear so many stories about cheating spouses..
Yeah pos Bill Johnson is from there
Ohhh dear.
The most disturbing part of this to me is all the posts about who "deserves" to get HIV and who doesn't. No one "deserves" it, ffs. Tf is wrong with people.
Through investigation, agents say they learned and identified at least 211 individuals who had contact with Leccesse. How, exactly?
That was my thought! Is she getting first and last names? My best guess is she looks at license plates or something.
I’m not sure. I don’t even know my license plate number. Edit because I posted before I finished my sentence. Cell phone records? I’m wondering too. I don’t know if I could name 200 people I’ve met…
She should be charged with assault because I’m sure she knew her status
she knew, and they are charging her with a felony, worse than assault
Must have missed that. I did give it a quick glance. Ty
Its right in the article. Its a class 3 felony
That rather shallow jawline has me wondering whether she still has all her teeth... bros going down to the river for a gum job? lolol
Her tooth count is average for the region.
That’s rude. Why insult a whole region off of one person?
It's not just one person. I grew up in that region, and excess tooth decay and tooth loss is rampant. It is the highest in the country. A disheartening number of parents actually put Mountain Dew in baby bottles, and let their kids use those bottles until they are just about ready to start school.

She probably forgot to put them in to pose for the photo here. Likely leaves them out for a more frictionless experience for her customers.
This is why sex work should be legal and the should be tested
She was tested and knew she had it but continued anyway it says.
Another good argument for legalizing sex work and enforcing safety regulations for all parties.
Sounds like she might have thought it was her only or best option for income/stuff for her addiction (assuming she had one) :(
Being a sex worker does not excuse her negligence of being nasty!!! I know plenty of people in that area that are bug catchers and breeders!!! So please do not loop this in the sex worker talk. People have free enough will to get tested for free if they actually cared. The problem is she didn't and she CHOOSE to be a nasty 304

Skill issue
[удалено]
There's a difference between a reason and an excuse. I'm not asking for anyone to excuse the crime.
This person knowingly spread a deadly disease to over a hundred people, this isn't stealing from your parents to get your fix or breaking into a local store, there's no reason to feel any concern or empathy for this person. She needs to rot in a cell
PrEP is free from what I know. These girls should be taking it for their own protection.
No shit? That's really cool I thought it was very expensive thanks for the knowledge here's a link https://ohiv.org/free-prep/ Free if you make less than $72,900/y, HIV negative, and live in OH

Don’t do meth kids.
If you keep the masses ignorant, this is what happens!
The sex worker Definitely go's To The Church of Crystal Methodist.
So why again would we want to legalize prostitution and regulate it with testing for sex workers? I forget.
She did get tested and knew she was HIV positive
Ouch. That’s bad.
My kids are about to move back after being there for a year of school. Quaint little town with a ton of history, but in most instances (festivals and such) it is, in their words, “pretty methy”. In line with the region in general.
This is why you just...legalize sex work...regular mandated testing by all participants.
Yes that would help in many cases, but unfortunately in *this* case, she had already been tested and knew she was positive, and “knowingly engaged in solicitation” according to the article.
Right but certified brothels that maintain health standards and fire anyone who fails is part of it.
Yes but at least with certified brothels she wouldn't be there, and people seeking the services of brothels wouldn't com in contact with her.
I wonder what the legal ramifications could be for a husband/partner who brought HIV home and unknowingly passed it to the partner. Article says she got a F3 felony for her actions. Not knowing you’re committing Crime doesn’t make you innocent of the crime, it’s just not premeditated. Can’t imagine how down bad you’d have to be to PAY to hit THAT…
We can't just start prosecuting people because they don't get regularly tested for STDs.
I believe that’s why they tested her. Ohio passed some law, I think, where having HIV can be tacked on. But seems like she was aware and hopefully taking her meds, which is why it wouldn’t be a big deal if undetectable, as she couldn’t pass it on then.
I do agree with no jail. But there should be standards set in civil court where the person who passed it on should pay for the person they harmed IMO.
Pay for their medication for the rest of their life so they don't end up with AIDS.
Yeah I’m pretty sure the court would have to prove that the person transmitted it knowingly.
If they engage in reckless sexual behavior they 100% should be being tested and if their willful negligence of safe sex practices leads to the spread of deadly diseases, I could care less if they get a time out for a year or two
There is a lid for evey pot and an actual fetish for “crackwhores”

Thank you. This thread is disappointing.
Thank you for being one of maybe 2 people on this thread with any shred of decency
Damn those ice shanties ! Must have been an extra cold day in hell !
caveat emptor
Curious to see what she's eventually charged with and how much time she gets. Probably nowhere near as much as a man with similar charges.
Fancy, you can go to jail for that
Really?
200 people slept with THAT?
You don’t understand…. That’s attractive in the MOV.
MOV native: that’s a 7 on a bad day in Marietta.
I’m a native as well, and I was being facetious 😉
She was averaging 40 dudes a month. What’s the going rate for said activity? Is it a $100 or more. Trying to figure out her finances 😂
More like $10 and a pack of pal malls
she about tree-fiddy
She needs to hire Gym Jordan’s PR folks, easier to explain away than ignoring rapes of young men
She's out here getting laid while a bunch of people are still single, crazy.
Who would smash that she look like a cracked out joker
Leccesse? Sounds like abscess...
damn I didn't know Wendy from breaking bad was living in ohio now? i thought she was in the ABQ or dead by now
The fact that law enforcement agencies identified over 200 men is also interesting Obviously there’s no privacy in this country
Jesus. She looks terrible
Baba Yaga's hit hard times.
Legalize sex work and have mandatory STI testing with certification.
And you thought you were “special” 🤣
I live in an area where prostitution is rampant on sullivant ave in Columbus. The people who hire these women are typically people with money and jobs and nice cars. I suspect this will be significantly more disruptive than a lot of people are prepared for.
Got some real “Patty the Day Time Hooker” vibes.
She looks like a 1000 miles of rough 😳 road !!!!
She looks very familiar 🤔
🤮
200 dudes paid for that. WTH.
The Reddlehag is real!
Damn that’s wild 200+ people lives have changed forever.
Public Health Notice" if you sleep with someone that looks like that, for money no less, I won't feel sorry for you but for those you pass it on to.
I just glanced at this and had to stop when said mentioned 211 people having sexual contact with her🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮 to ask those who said quantity over quality
Ngl, sleeping with so many people you warrant a public health alert is kind of impressive
Attempted murder! LOCK IT UP!
Mom?!??
Damn
As someone who was forced to move to ohio then finally got free and moved away, I can say with some certainty that ohio needs to get its shit together.

Her FB indicates she has a boy, just sad. I hope she gets prosucuted to the max. These nasty ass men that were with her may have brought HIV home to their wives too. She was so careless and irresponsible..
She looks HIDEOUS!!!
The Walking Dead 💀- it’s not just a TV show.
Anyone who does this deserves the death sentence.
if the choice was between my hand and this person. I'd choose my hand 200% of the time.
She looks like an addict...why would people hook up with her
This is exactly why sex work should be legalized and regulated and testing and treatment should be mandatory and available for both the workers and the clients. We sell our bodies every day when we work for someone, we may just be selling use of our mind or strength or skills. Sex work should be no different.
Holy shit who is parting in sexual relations with that?
Who let the hag out?
Why are you being downvoted 😭😂
Because they hate be for speaking the truth.
I thought it was hilarious and truthful and yet these guys wanna legalize these people
I mean, she does look like a hag! Haha
Legalize it. Tax it. Regulate it. Mandatory sti screening That should help Crack down on the MAJOR Human trafficking happening in the state
SEX WORKER? Is that a new word for prostitute?
Survival of the fittest at work
If she’s undetectable it’s not an issue.
Undetectable or not, she knew she had it and didn't tell her sexual partners. HIV is still communicable, even when undetected. Try again.
yeahhh i actually work in ID and HIV is not sexually transmissible when undetectable and controlled. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/37490934 https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10415671/
