HIV Rapist Adam Hall Jailed for Life

HIV Rapist Adam Hall Jailed for Life

The sentencing at Newcastle Crown Court revealed that Hall’s youngest victim was just 15 years old when he was deliberately infected.

Hall reportedly refused to take medication that would have lowered his viral load, choosing instead to 'infect as many people as possible.' Victims described the 'shattering' moment they received their diagnoses, with many suffering from lasting psychological trauma.

Health officials have urged anyone who met Hall through dating apps to seek immediate HIV testing, as he is known to have traveled across the North East and North Yorkshire to meet men.
