When you're breaking up a party at a creek, you're bound to meet some characters. But a police officer from southern Missouri recently found himself a little too intimate with the weirdness after arresting a man for an outstanding warrant.
After helping sheriff's deputies respond to a creek party, officer Josh Burris detained 57-year-old Michael Sartin and was transporting him to the Mansfield police station when Sartin tried to slip out of his cuffs, reports KY3. When Burris adjusted the handcuffs, Sartin spit in the officer's face -- and then said something that freaked the officer out.
"Now you'll know what it's like to have HIV like me, to live like you know you're going to die," he allegedly said to the officer.
Sartin is being charged for assaulting a police officer and reckless exposure to HIV. He's facing up to 15 years in prison, although even with blood mixed into his saliva, the officer couldn't possibly have been exposed to HIV.
"This guy biting his tongue to spit in an officer's face, it's the same as if he would have had a loaded gun to the officer's head, in my opinion," Webster County Prosecutor Danette Padgett said.

My thing is you call black people monkeys (in the masturbating in a police interview room is a bad idea article) yet this caucasian male is spitting at a person just simply doing his job. If anyone's animalistic, it's this man, but, of course, if i said all whites are disgusting camels, i'd be the wrong one!

I'm pretty sure MANDY is a female name.
Note to self.....when calling someone a moron over an article, try not to sound like one yourself.
Hello? Who is the moron that wrote this article? You should at least understand HIV before printing something so grossly irresponsible as saying that blood tainted with HIV can't possibly infect someone else.
You sir, are a moron and should not be allowed to write another word ever again. In fact go have someone with HIV spit blood at your face and see what happens if your so sure it's safe.
What a joke.
LOL, all in a days work. Comes with the badge, just like getting shot at.

"[]...although even with blood mixed into his saliva, the officer couldn't possibly have been exposed to HIV."
Um, what world are you living in? If the blood/saliva had entered his eyes or mouth, HIV transmission is possible (even without an open wound).
Fail.
