AIDS: THE LOST VOICES
During the AIDS pandemic, a troubling subculture arose, characterised by exploitation. One woman sold her HIV positive test results to fraudsters to claim state benefits. Additionally, two were arrested for blackmailing supermarkets by threatening to inject food with HIV for money. These incidents show moral degradation in a crisis and the lengths some will go for financial gain.
AIDS, THE LOST VOICES
Will & Gloria stumble across prisoner Del Sinclair, who in 1985 featured in a national newspaper declaring he intended to ‘go straight’ and even publish a book on Prison food. However, 4 weeks later and back on remand Del tested HIV positive and faced threats of violence from other inmates. The pair also uncover several accounts of gay men who were denied post-mortems on the ‘suspicion’ of having AIDS.
