Romeo discovers he has AIDS and decides to end his relationship with Juliet to avoid transmitting the disease. However, Juliet convinces Romeo to have intercourse one last time. Six months later, Juliet is found to have contracted AIDS. Romeo could potentially be liable under sections 47, 20, and 18 of the Offences Against the Person Act 1861 for assault, battery, and inflicting grievous bodily harm on Juliet. His liability would depend on proving his mental state met the requirements for each offense.
