A Douglas County judge will not dismiss charges against a Lawrence man accused of exposing women to HIV, and the man now faces a new HIV charge in Wyandotte County.Judge Stephen Six ruled in a decision dated Friday that the state’s HIV-exposure law is not unconstitutionally vague or overly broad- a ruling that means trial will go forward in Douglas County for 30-year-old Robert W. Richardson II. The decision was not avialable for public view until today.”Clearly, the state of Kansas has a rational basis to regulate and criminalize sexual conduct involving persons who have tested positive for HIV and may subject others to the risk of contracting the potentially life threatening disease,” Six wrote. Richardson is charged with exposing four women to HIV in Douglas County in the past year through sexual contact. In addition, he faces similar charges in Johnson County, Mo. and in Lyon County.An arrest warrant in a new HIV case out of Wyandotte County was served on Richardson during the weekend at the Douglas County Jail, where he is incarcerated as he awaits trial.
