An HIV-positive
man was sentenced Friday to 25 years in prison after
pleading guilty to charges related to the sexual assaults of
two people last year. Darrell J. Alderton, 42, of Iowa
City, Iowa, pleaded guilty in May to two counts of
criminal transmission of HIV. Each charge carries a
25-year sentence, but Judge Robert Sosalla ordered the
sentences to run concurrently. Two counts of
third-degree sexual abuse and a charge of false
imprisonment were dismissed.
Alderton was
charged with sexually assaulting a fellow inmate at the
Johnson County jail in June 2005. He was in jail after being
arrested in May 2005 for sexually assaulting a
16-year-old boy at his apartment. Alderton said the
sex was consensual but that he did not tell the boy he
had HIV. (AP)
