News Briefs South Dakota: HIV Trial Is DelayedAugust 26, 2002 The trial of Aberdeen, S.D., roommates William K. Jenigen, 35, and Jay L. Woods, 41, who are accused of intentionally exposing others to HIV, has been rescheduled from Sept. 16 to Jan. 6. The delay is necessary to give both sides time to prepare, said State's Attorney Mark McNeary. The men were arrested in early may and released on $25,000 personal recognizance bonds. Jenigen was charged with six counts; Woods was charged with three. The 2000 state Legislature made intentional HIV exposure a felony punishable by up to 15 years in prison and/or a $15,000 fine. A Si Tanka Huron University student who was the first person prosecuted under the law has pleaded guilty and will be sentenced Aug. 29.
