Rossiter v. Evans: On another continent: Australia

On another continent: Australia

The story made it to Europe several times over, plus Asia, and now...

Cleo magazine in Australia has a fantastic article about the Rossiter v. Evans case featured as a cover story for their March 2011 issue. The interview was conducted by the fabulous Rebecca Whish, who has also written for Vogue, Project Runway, and GQ.

And what a cute cover. LC looks great. The write-up is awesome, too. So if you're down under, grab a copy of the mag and head to the nearest beach to soak up the summertime rays with this great read. Don't forget the sunblock.

"In determining reprehensibility, the court considers a number of factors including whether the harm caused was physical as opposed to economic, the tortious conduct evinced an indifference to or a reckless disregard of the health or safety of others, the conduct involved repeated actions or was an isolated incident, and the harm was the result of intentional malice, trickery, or deceit, or mere accident.

On our de novo review of the record, we find all of these factors were established in the evidence. The harm caused [by Evans] was not only physical, it concerns the most intimate and private interests, including sexuality and childbearing. Evans's conduct demonstrated a reckless disregard for Rossiter's health and safety.

Evans is a dentist. He has received medical training and should be aware of the risks associated with communicable diseases. Yet, Evans [repeatedly exposed] her to genital warts, HPV, and bacterial vaginitis. The harm was not a result of mere accident."
