Georgia man knowingly gave HIV to wife, who died 2 days after the diagnosis. Now multiple women reveal alleged affairs

Key Points:

• Denise Broadie, a Georgia woman and two-time cancer survivor, died from AIDS-related complications after her husband, Cleveland Broadie, allegedly concealed his HIV-positive status from her and other women for years.
• Cleveland Broadie was arrested and faced multiple charges, including malice and felony murder, but ultimately pleaded guilty to three reckless conduct charges related to HIV exposure, receiving a 15-year sentence with eight years to serve.
• Prosecutors claimed Cleveland knowingly hid his HIV diagnosis, failed to take medication regularly, and engaged in unprotected sex with his wife and other women without disclosure, while his defense argued he had informed Denise in writing before marriage—an explanation rejected by Denise's family.
• The case drew attention to the dangers of undisclosed HIV infections and the importance of awareness, as Denise's undiagnosed condition went untreated for years, leading to her death shortly after diagnosis.
• Denise's family, after a lengthy fight for justice and investigation, expressed relief at the plea deal, hoping the case raises public awareness and prevents others from being unknowingly exposed to HIV.
