According to a report at The Huffington Post, a 35-year-old HIV-positive man in New Zealand injected his sleeping HIV-negative wife with the virus so she'd pony up and have sex with him.

After finding out her husband tested positive for the virus while she and her children remained HIV-free, the wife agreed to protected sex with him. While she continued to receive negative results, she grew increasingly paranoid about contracting the disease and cut him off around 2007. The husband didn't take lightly to this no-sex measure and decided to solve this little problem by infecting his wife with HIV—guerilla style.

Finally she grew wise to his schemes when she came home from work and saw him tooling about with a syringe of his own blood.

After testing positive for the virus, the husband finally came clean—crying that he didn't want her to leave him and wanted her to experience the wonders of HIV with him. Fight HIV/AIDS With YourTango

He is due to be sentenced in the Auckland High Court early next year and will likely receive a 14-year or more jail sentence.
