According to the findings of a private investigator that Denise’s family hired, Cleveland was diagnosed with HIV in 2006 and most likely infected his wife with the virus soon after they first met.
She was unable to seek treatment since she was not aware that she had the illness, which allowed the infection to progress to AIDS.
At least two more women have come forward after Cleveland’s account was made public, which resulted in further accusations of reckless conduct in 2023.
In Atlanta, Georgia, police have informed local media that they think there could be a large number of victims.
It is against the law in the state of Georgia to purposefully have intercourse without revealing your HIV status.
According to reports, Denise’s family is upset that she didn’t get treatment until it was too late, and her daughter has accused Cleveland of acting with “malice.”
