‘Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned’ and several incidents this past week attest the same, such as an angry wife who drove 4km with her husband hanging off the car bonnet. Then there was the wife who climbed up and stomped on the car roof in heavy traffic because her husband was ignoring her after an argument.
While many might wait for ‘Karma’ to work its ways, this woman decided to punish the men who have wronged her.
The video of a revenge-seeking woman from Georgia bragging about infecting her ex-partners with HIV has sent shock waves across social media.
The woman, identified as Brandi Yakeima Lasiter wanted to punish the men of Americus, Georgia. The method she chose was making a video on Facebook’s Live feed, claiming to be HIV-positive and broadcasting that she had infected her past sexual partners.
But her idea to annoy the men who wronged her got her under the scanner.
Her Facebook rant soon got the attention of many including the police. According to reports, Americus police began investigating after one of the men named in the video filed a complaint and showed them the video in which Lasiter was seen naming men she claimed to have infected, along with their wives and girlfriends.

Americus Police Maj. Herman Lamar said that Brandi Yakeima Lasiter met with detectives and showed them results of a September 2018 blood test indicating she did not have HIV. She even agreed to take an additional blood test.
“She stated she was angry at the people named in the video when she posted it,” Lamar said.
Netizens didn’t seem happy with her act:
Under Georgia law, HIV-positive individuals are required to reveal their diagnosis to intimate partners; exposing another to the virus during a sexual encounter without disclosure is a felony punishable by up to 10 years in prison.
While the police are awaiting results of the HIV test before deciding whether Lasiter should face charges or not, we sure wish people come up with less drastic ways to get back at partners who wrong them!
